"Tom Yocky Mountain Dulcimers"
Embroidered Patch

$2.50

Finally I've come up with a logo, and here it is in living color on this very nice 2" diameter patch.  Attach it to your case or storage bag. 

Please note, new orders of a storage bag or soft case include one of these patches for free. 

 

Tan or Green Case (Full size Hourglass or Junior dulcimer) = $50

Black Case (Electric dulcimer) = $45

 

These soft cases are of very good quality and fit my unique dulcimer design very well.  These soft cases are great for preventing damage due to travel or rough handling.  Full 1" thick padding, and plush simulated sheepskin type interior material.  They have a pair of handles, and two straps that allow the case to be worn as a backpack (shoulder strap for green cases).  There is also a pocket large enough to hold a lot of accessories.  There are two zipper handles so the bag can either open up completely (as shown) or you can open just the long top seam while the sides stay shut.  With the soft cases we include a "Tom Yocky Mountain Dulcimers" embroidered patch, that we will sew on for you.

2 Dunlop Nylon Picks .73mm

$1.00
High quality guitar picks.  This is exactly what I use

Noter

Made from hardwood dowel stock.  They are sanded (so no sharp edges).

Available in 1/4" and 3/8" diameter (please specify which size you want)

$3 each

Dunlop Stringwinder

$3.00
A durable ABS plastic crank that fits over a tuner knob for faster string changes. I use this same item and it makes changing strings much easier.

And if you have a guitar, it has a built in bridge pin puller.

(colors may vary)

Korg CA-40 Chromatic Electronic Tuner

$28.00

A "must" for you beginners.

This is the tuner I have recommended to my past customers. For a beginning player, tuning can be an intimidating process. This will make tuning simple and accurate, and trust me when I say, you will sound a whole lot better on a correctly tuned instrument.

The Korg CA-30 is an accurate pocket-size chromatic tuner with an outstanding price! It operates from 32Hz to 4186 Hz (C1 to C8), and is designed for tuning guitars, basses, keyboards and more. It features an LCD "needle" display for stability, with easy-to-read LED pitch variation indicator lights. It can be calibrated for a variety of concert pitches, and also has a memory backup function. 
The CA-30 includes an input jack for electric instruments, a built-in high-sensitivity microphone for acoustic instruments, and can generate reference tones through its internal speaker. Batteries are included.

16 oz bottle 
Lemon Oil
Wood Treatment
(exact brand my vary according to availability)

$10.00
I use Lemon Oil Treatment on my own personal dulcimers to clean off dust and grime and to replenish and maintain the hand rubbed finish.  This one 16 oz bottle will last you forever.  It is invaluable in maintaining your dulcimer. It is very simple to wipe on and can even go on the strings to get rid of "squeaks" from your fingers sliding up and down.  The brand I carry will vary according to availablility.

Dulcimer Capo

$18.00

They are a nice handmade capo that will work well on Yocky dulcimers
(Even with it's wider fingerboard)

External Pickup
"Bigshot" External model made by K&K Sound

$34.00

These are great pickups.  Wonderfully clean, accurate sound.  I use this same pickup for all of my auction dulcimer soundsamples.

Dulcimer Strap

$10.00

2"-wide nylon strap provides the utmost playing comfort. Ends are rugged plastic with a special locking feature to ensure your dulcimer stays right where you want it. Adjusts to 52" long for the perfect fit. 

Please note, these straps do not fit well over the endpin jack of an internal pickup.  So I also carry some with leather ends for those of you with an internal pickup in your dulcimer.
