Custom Electric Dulcimer by Black Mountain-New Lower Price

Here is a unique vintage solid body electric dulcimer built for me by California’s Black Mountain Musical Instruments in the early 90’s. It is one of two artist models they made; the other was created for Jimmy Page!
I’m afraid I cannot recall the exact year I ordered this, but I know that the color is unique and the wonderful asymmetric body style was only available for a very short time. I’ve used it on all kinds of recordings and played it with the legendary Tex Pistols, who dubbed it “The Pink Thing” for obvious reasons. It plays equally well overhand while standing a la Force & D’Ossche or seated using standard dulcimer technique.
