It has an aptly descriptive name origin: 'dulcis' - sweet; 'melos' - song. Widely thought to have North American roots in the early 1800's Appalachian Mountains, the traditional mountain (also called lap or fretted) dulcimer is one of the most popular folk instruments in the U.S. today.
One reason for the its popularity is that it's a very easy instrument to learn to play. You don't have to read music. Most of the available songbooks written for this instrument use number tab (playing by numbers rather than by notes), so if you can count to ten then you can play. And although easy to learn on a basic level, it can be as challenging to play as you want.For a selection of songbooks and instructional material please visit the book page. Accessories include extra string sets (always a good idea to keep on hand), a wide variety of carrying cases and an inexpensive yet accurate and easy to use electronic tuner.
