The Dulcimer Shoppe offers mountain dulcimers in a variety of styles and sizes. They have a selection of hardwoods available with two different style peg heads.

All the dulcimers are priced to include a nylon-covered, closed-cell foam, zippered soft case, shaped to fit closely around the instruments. You can up-grade the case to a hard shell case for a slight additional charge on any instrument.
