I think I might have to buy a cardboard mountain dulcimer. And I found a place that has them cheaper than in the OP. Here. Clicky.

Ordered myself a mountain dulcimer.  Gonna spraypaint it electric, eye-bleeding lime green and black. It shall assault many senses, not merely the ears.

Well, holy gently caress. My dulcimer arrived in the mail and I spent some time assembling it. It sounds great and it's a helluva lot of fun to play.  Great thread, thank you for starting it.

TapTheForwardAssist posted:So was it a cardboard dulcimer, or a wooden kit, or just in pieces and needed fixing? I got a cardboard dulcimer. The sound that comes out is rad as hell. People who've seen me play it thought it was wooden. I assembled it, then primed it. Waited for it to dry, then painted it in latex paint. Waited for that to dry, sanded it down, another layer of paint. Waited for that to dry, another quick sand and another layer of paint. Once that dried, I decorated it with spray paint. Let THAT dry, glue/clamp the fretboard to the body and holy poo, this cheap-rear end cardboard dulcimer sounds like hot poo poo on a griddle. Even noodling around with no song in mind is fun and sounds good. I totally recommend the cardboard dulcimer from that MusicMaker's site. Good value.
