Fully Chromatic

The 14/13/8 Chickadee Chromatic hammered dulcimer is the fully chromatic version of our 13/12 Chickadee.  It adds the third bridge on the left with the three missing notes at the bottom of the two main bridges added at the top of the third.  Below that are five courses used for low bass.

The tuning of these is optional within a certain range, but Chris tunes them from the bottom up: Low G, Low C, then D, E, and F# to complete the lower octave of the key of D.  Sometimes he tunes the second note from C down to B and can get a G major arpeggio over four full octaves!

A really versatile small dulcimer!

Perfect for Jam Sessions

The Chickadee Chromatic produces a clear ring that projects well, and holds its own very well in a room full of other instruments.



Complete outfit includes a good case, stand of your choice, hammers, tuning wrench, and Mel Bay's You Can Teach Yourself Hammered Dulcimer. Durable 3/8" Baltic Birch laminate top, cherry rails, maple pin blocks, and walnut bridges.
