The build was straight forward. The instructions were clear, although their video showed a cleaner way of installing the frets without a steel hammer. The finished instrument looks and sounds great!
Let me start by saying if you’re a beginner and want to learn the dulcimer there’s nothing wrong with going with the cardboard kit it gives you appreciation for what you had built. Yes I’ve own a few dulcimers all diatonic, but I want to learn chromatic so this is the way I went, as far as shipping, an actual product review. It’s all great because it’s from folkcraft.
I built this for my wife for an anniversary gift, she adores it and the build was straightforward. Quality parts, good instructions. I made some minor modifications to the kit (strum hollow on the neck, cut the nut slots a bit deeper, touch of paint) and everything worked out great. 100% recommended
The kit is excellent , all the parts fit well. It was a joy to build it yourself . Now I just have to learn to play it . Thank you Folkcraft for a fine product . D Kitson
An excellent kit to assemble. Went together nicely. I did watch Banjo Lemonade do her YouTube video's which helped and she gave some tips as well. I did change the strings and made it a baritone and it sounds really good.
