Dior
My latest dulcimer, started around 1983 and finished in 1999. It features internal drone strings that double as truss rods, fretboard raised off the body but attached to the back via a dowel, pressure bridge and a soundboard too hard to allow much volume, as compared to its sister built for Constance Cook, with a cedar soundboard and twice the sound. Sides made of sycamore: Don't use sycamore. It cracks.
