5 out of 5 starsThere are cigar box guitar builders and then there are true luthiers. The cigar box Dulcimer-guitar I have received was made by a true Luthier. It's beautiful, the action is true and she sings with the most beautiful voice of any of my guitars. Thank you, New Egypt Folk Strings, I expect to be back!... Oh and also, this instrument was shipped quickly, I received it in just 3 days, packed well and in perfect condition. Gotta love that!

5 out of 5 starsI’m having a good time with this one string bass, you can do some wonderful things with it, just learn the fretboard. It’s great for blues.

5 out of 5 starsThe internet seems flooded with cheap mass-produced kalimbas and I was beginning to lose hope of finding one that would suit the person it was intended for. This kalimba is beautiful and has a wonderful sound. Thank you so much for the beautiful piece, its sturdy packaging, and the quick arrival.

5 out of 5 starsI had a hard time giving this to the recipient because of how nice this turned out, and wanted to keep it for myself. Beautiful craftsmanship, and I plan on ordering another in the near future for myself.
