Cigar Box Dulcimer

This is a cigar box dulcimer from a padron box. It's tuned DAD with Worth nylon strings for a different kind of tone. Its not super loud, but its good for a medium sized room w/o drowning out conversations.

red oak neck...couldnt say for sure about the box.

red oak is an old school tone wood from early 1900's from my understanding (which aint much)

thanks guys...I do dig playing this. I think the dulcimer is a great instrument. Its also been on my list for about 6 months to make a banjo...but more specifically a dulcijo. That's a 3 string diatonic banjo...a 5 string banjo type made perfect for clawhammer
