            of the Jean Ritchie Dulcimer. It is a traditionally styled Appalachian 
            mountain dulcimer built to Jean's specifications. It is available in walnut with a Western red cedar top and
                features the "Hearts-A-Flower" 
                  inlay on the fretboard and peghead, designed by Jean.  The design of this instrument tends to produce a 
              more "traditional" sound, but it is well suited to all styles 
              of dulcimer playing.
