Hi, that dulcimer looks and sounds great! I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba and I am also interested in learning the dulcimer. I hope you wouldn't mind indulging a fellow Manitoban's question about your dulcimer? How much did you pay to have it custom-made? And would you mind passing along Jerry's current contact information? My email is ramos_troy at hotmail dot com.

Ah! Very interesting. So did you need to widen the slots in the nut and bridge to accommodate the larger-gauge strings?

Actually, no. The new bass string seemed comfortable with the nut so I left it alone.
You might be interested in another Dulcimer variation I use - on my reverbnation page ( just' 'roldo', no '23') I do a version of 'Tom O' Bedlam on a Zuchovic 4 string ( 1 chanter, three drones) thats tuned with the melody string in Minor (Dorian is it?Aeolian? I can never remember) and the drones in Major. There's two tracks, one strummed and another played with a bow 'cause I don't have a Hurdy-gurdy...yet.

Beautiful dulcimer, and great improvisation. What is the stringing system you're using? And who built the dulcimer?

Hi! The Dulcimer Is "Marieka3' built here in Manitoba by Jerry Maksymyk (Prairie Wind Dulcimers)
As to the set-up, I noticed Marieka was some bit larger than my other Dulcimers and decided to try a new stringing. I replaced one of the 'melody' strings with the existing bassdrone so that they became an octave pair rather than a unison then replaced the bass drone with a Guitar low E so its an octave belower the melody strings.
Marieka also has an extra '1 1/2' fret.
