Great Job My wife and I are looking forward to trying to attend your class in Evert Mi. This summer. God Bless You.

Wonderful video. Thank you. I see a little bit of a Dulcimer to your far left that looks like it could be a Hickory Ridge Dulcimer Works made by Jeff Feltman. Do you own one of his Dulcimers? I have a flamed Maple and Engelmann spruce 5 string that he built for me in 1984.

Gosh I'd love to do workshop with you Stephen ... Any chance you could ever video one of them?

[@stephenseifert]

I guess you got your wish! (I just now learned how to find old un-answered comments on my KZbin channel.)

[@HelenaHallbergmusic]

Any chance you might come to New York and teach a class sometime?

[@stephenseifert]

For sure. What part? Email me at [e-mail] and I bet we can work something out.

[@DustyThorburn]

We need to get you out the west coast again, Steve.

Hi! after watching your video i ordered on amazone a dulcimer, i have received it, it has wooden pegs and the strings won't stay tight, unwind, any advice? I was hoping to follow along with you and learn how to play the dulcimer.

[@stephenseifert4283]

Wood pegs can be hard to work with. Check with the builder if you can. First try pushing in slightly as you turn. Really, it all depends on what’s going on. Take it to someone who can tell you.

[@suzanneleblanc1077]

Thank you!

[@stephenseifert]

I'm sorry I'm so late in responding. Email me at [e-mail] if I can still help.

[@kasper6680]

Hi dear! Is it possible to put strings on a dulcimer from a guitar corresponding to a caliber？

[@stephenseifert4283]

Sshskv Sshskv yes

[@stephenseifert]

For the most part, yes. Take your instrument to a good guitar repair person. Have them see what you've got there. Email me at [e-mail] if you still have questions about this.

[@lindathompson195]

What’s that tune you’re strumming? Nice

[@stephenseifert]

That was "Rosin the Beau".

[@johnroberts1141]

Drone style sounds best. In this instance, the chord style sounds too busy or dense.

You're showing off your skills but I've not learned a thing for a beginner. Not useful
