This beauty has 4 strings and is made of rosewood. It has an hour-glass shape with heart shaped cutouts on the soundboard. The Mountain Dulcimer is hourglass in shape and more closely resembles the zither than the other styles of dulcimer. Mounted along the hourglass shaped soundboard is the fretted neck. The soundboard terminates at the Peg Box. The single, non-course, strings can be noted on the neck while the strings are strummed or plucked.
