Thomann Dulcimer De Luxe

un prix très attractif et un résultat optimal. attention à changer les cordes, les Martin ou les Daddario proposées par Thomann sont parfaites pour cela. Les cordes d'origine sont bien aussi mais elles tiennent un peu moins l'accord.

Il faut attendre une bonne semaine pour que l'accord choisi tienne sans avoir à réaccorder sans cesse. Possibilité après de changer l'accord sans trop que ça bouge mais éviter de passer du Cgc au Dad sans cesse, sinon ça se désaccorde pendant le jeu. Passer du Dad au Dac et du Cgc au Cga# pose beaucoup moins de problème. Ce qui permet un jeu à l'aise pour passer du majeur au mineur.

Petit bémol lorsque l'on met un capo (spécial Dulcimer commandé sur un site outre-atlantique), des traces de vis restent imprimées sur le bois (même sans serrer fort) et l'accord tient peu. Mais pour le prix, ce n'est pas dérangeant d'avoir une marque de vis sur le bois.

Conclusion, pas la peine de débourser 1000 euros pour se faire plaisir et apprendre le dulcimer avec une qualité optimale. Celui-ci est parfait

This dulcimer is an excellent choice for beginners, or for anyone looking for an inexpensive pick up and play instrument.

The weight is reasonable, and the sound quality is good for the price.

Considering that this is most likely to be purchased by beginners, it would be nice to have included some basic dulcimer care and playing tutorials. However, there is plenty of material available on the internet.

This is the second dulcimer I have purchased from Thomann. The first one purchased was the standard Thomann model which I was not 100% happy with in terms of build quality and and the action of the string set up.
As the Thomann 100% happy policy was investigated it was absolutely no problem to return it and this model was ordered. What a great service!!!!
The De Luxe arrived very quickly to the UK and the packaging was excellent.
Once opened a thorough examination was made of the finish and the string action, which was excellent I have to add.
Once tuned to D,A,D the strumming began.
I am really impressed with the overall tone of this instrument and its playability.
Having never played a dulcimer before I did not know what to expect especially at this entry level priced item.
In conclusion this is an excellent instrument and would recommend anybody wishing to dabble in dulcimer to give this model a try.
You won't be disappointed
