Bruce Petros
Larry’s Dulcimers are built with care and intelligence and are second to none. His years of experience as a piano technician make him an instant expert on the structure and tonal insights needed to make a stable instrument with tone to spare. The tone of this instrument is very smooth and even and rich and is so pleasant you could listen to it for hours. It has none of the harsh qualities that make you cringe when you hear inferior instruments.
His expertise is evident if you know what details to look for: His knowledge of the proper function and installation of the tuning pins comes from years of rebuilding pianos which uses a similar type of tuning pin. The floating soundboard is ingenious! The instrument is not going to go out of tune with every minute change in humidity; a feature you will learn to appreciate if you ever have an instrument without one and you need to tune it every other week. From fit and finish to form and function, Larry Nelsen’s dulcimers are professional and first class. Highly recommended!
