@nprofile1q... ha. I was just looking at all the pictures you posted of them lately. Lol

This one is all guesses by the person who gave it to me because someone gave it to him also. It has been in very talented hands? But they did not care for it well it looks like. The person who gave it to me said he thought it was built from a kit.

But why the non-standard set of strings then? I suspect a true dulcimer lover built it to suit a creative need.
