 traditional

This gallery contains instruments that I've decided to call "Traditional Stringed Instruments". It features octave mandolin, gourd banjo, dulcimer, harp, etc... - instruments that you'd think of as being useful for playing traditional American music or Celtic music. I've always enjoyed building and playing instruments other than guitars and these are a few examples.

This gallery is dedicated to stringed instruments from other parts of the world. Prominently featured are the West African Kora, a 21-stringed gourd harp and the Oud from Arabic and Middle Eastern countries. If you're interested in something different, this is the place for you.

This is the place where all the extra stuff lives. You'll find a number of interesting instruments that I've built including dijeridoos, drums, and African lyre harp as well as photos of a few repair projects that have come through the shop. Visit all the galleries often for new items and photos. Like we say in Texas... "Don't be a stranger!"
