Other Instruments
Hammered dulcimers, epinettes, hommels, autoharps, guitars, banjos…yes, even hurdy gurdies. I’ve sold all these stringed instruments in the last few years, as well as a metal contrabass clarinet… but that’s another story.
Instruments available now or sold recently are listed below. If you have one for sale or part-exchange…and it’s not a dulcimer…I might still be interested.
Dusty Strings D45 Hammered Dulcimer #17803 £800 Sold including case and (homemade) stand
Dove Sylkie Hammered Dulcimer £600 Sold
Oscar Schmidt Autoharp Model OS73C £Sold
21 Chord autoharp (black 1930’s re-issue). This is the model “strongly recommended” by the UK Autoharp Association (UKA) for first time players. For further information click here.
The instrument is in first class condition (hardly been out of its box). It is fitted with strap buttons. Included is an immaculate Ashbury de-luxe, plush lined hard case (cost over £70); tuning wrench and assorted picks. Three strings need replacing but a new set of Fladmark strings is also included in the sale. I’ll throw in a tuition DVD by Bryan Bowers and a copy of Bonnie Phipps’ book.
Nigout 19th C Jenzat Vielle a Roue (Hurdy Gurdy) £Sold
In the process of complete restoration by one of the foremost French maker/repairers, Bernard Kerboeuf.
