Enhanced Acoustic Resonance with Old-Growth Sitka Spruce

The secret behind the exceptional sound of mountain dulcimer Sitka spruce tops lies in their heritage. Sourced from salvage-recovered old-growth timber, this wood has aged naturally for centuries, developing an unparalleled stiffness-to-weight ratio. This unique characteristic is crucial for superior projection and dynamic range, allowing your dulcimer to sing with a rich, full voice. The natural aging process enhances the wood fiber’s resonant properties, delivering tonal excellence unmatched by younger, plantation-grown alternatives. Craft instruments with a profound depth of sound and remarkable sustain that truly stands out, thanks to this tonewood selection.
