@Inglewood Instruments Since regular mountain dulcimers can be played 'noter-drone' style, could you also play this noter-drone style by wearing a wooden finger cap (like a thimble made of wood), and doing this sliding technique with it, but do the sliding with all the notes you play?
I don't follow. Left or right hand for the wooden cap? If left, I wouldn't want to do that to the fretboard, I'm sure it would create all kinds of dents. Almost sounds like a slide (glass or metal).
@@HeyInglewood pretty much just doing 'slide guitar' style, like how you would play a diddly bow or regular guitar with a slide while standing up, but instead of a glass slide it would be a wooden thimble, and instead of the instrument being fretless, you would push down the string to the fret and slide between them, to create that same 'clacking' noise you get with a noter-drone playing on a regular lap mountain dulcimer.
I have not. I'm making my own now, which are 1.5 octaves, and that seems to be plenty. Maybe one day I'll actually make a living at all of this (instead of an upside down hobby-business), and then I'll be able to justify more instruments!
@@HeyInglewood They are 300$ so i can't afford one, was hopeing i could watch a video of you playing it instead. I am a broke college kid lol, that's why i can only think about getting 90$ CBG's and CBD's, or 30$ canjos..
