I have been making dulcimers for 12 years and have supplied many music industry professionals, composers and musicians and beginners, in the UK and abroad.

Some of my clients are names you have may have heard of such as Peter Gabriel, and others like James Asher and Roger Bolton for instance whose names are less familiar but whose music you will have heard on TV or Film . I have also supplied foreign recording artists Karin Hoghielm.

I have spent considerable time refining the design of these instruments using various elements from the world of dulcimers resulting in an instrument that fuses 21st century construction techniques with classic elements and a streamlined modern appearance representing the best of UK Dulcimer design. Each instrument has good tuning stability.

I hope you find things of interest in the website. If there are things you would like to comment on please E-mail me.

Music technology teaching

My business card features Pythagorous who was one of the earliest music technologists, he wanted to understand the relationship between string tension, string length and pitch. His instrument features strings of equal length and thickness with different weights and hence different tensions on each string. I am at present studying Music Technology at Bath Spa University
