MY #1 BEST SELLER!!

Just finished this one and it turned out perfect!

This Backpacker Strumstick/Dulcimer by Sunshine Mountain Dulcimers is my brand new, best selling instrument made of high-quality wormy chestnut (rare and hard to find) sycamore, walnut, and poplar woods. My Backpacker is hand-carved and lightweight, making it perfect for beginners and advanced players alike. Crafted in the United States, this Backpacker offers durability and a unique sound for any music lover that they will be proud to own!

I closed my shop in Gatlinburg Tennessee due to Covid and am now selling exclusively online. This gives me more time for building which is what I love to do.

I have handcrafted hundreds of instruments over my 40 year career and this Backpacker is my most popular and best selling instrument.
