This is one I just finished. The overhanging top and bottom simplify glue-up, hide mistakes, and are reminiscent of the first dulcimer I saw 65 years ago, when Richard Farina showed me the basic strum on his. The black fretboard is an homage to Paul Clayton's ebony fretboard. His instrument was a treat to play. The saw-kerfed sides are how I learned to make them when I was eleven, from Howie Mitchell's mimeographed booklet.
