Planter No. 10
Clear tone, 10 diatonic frets, and tuned standard to the key of G (G3, D4, G4).
Planters are a newer 3-string model of my lute dulcimers. With smaller headstocks (similar to Jacks and Paiges) and a lightweight body design their overall weight is very light 🪶
3-string lute dulcimers, such as this, have the same note range as 4-string varieties with similar fretting but with only one melody string instead of two.
Details:
Wood Species - padauk soundboard; yellowwood fretboard; butternut centerpiece; maple body, neck, and headstock
Padauk will darken to a reddish brown over time
Straight Neck
Sound Hole Insert - hand cut bird
Length - 27” (68.6 cm)
Max Body Width - 6 1/2” (16.5 cm)
Body Depth - 1 15/16” (4.9 cm)
Clear tone, 10 diatonic frets, and tuned standard to the key of G (G3, D4, G4).
