Method for Bass dulcimer

Just arrived, ready for my Bass to arrive. The audio files really sold it for me. The book looks to be straight forward as the sample pages showed. I’ll report back more after I get to dig into it.

Bass DULCIMER (BING FUTCH)

As usual Bing keeps things pretty simple.

I have other books by BING
Learned alot about the fretboard, pickup amplifiers and more.

I also had to get a L R Braggs acoustic D.I. because I didn't have a preamp in my dulcimer I just had a standard pickup.

I enjoy the exercises in the books

Over all it is a very good book very educational.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking forward are to playing the bass dulcimer.
