Custom Cloud 9 15/14 Hammered Dulcimer 2014? Black/Walnut

This is a beautiful Cloud 9 Hammered Dulcimer.

15/14 is a great size.   Considered full size but not too bulky.
About Cloud Nine:

Michael C. Allen has been making wooden stringed musical instruments including hammered dulcimers full time since 1977. He has also taught guitar making, and invented his own version of Marimbula. His workshop is known as ~Cloud Nine~ Musical Instruments.

Since 2004, Michael has been one of only three hammered dulcimer makers selected to create an instrument as a prize in the National Hammered Dulcimer Championship held in Winfield, Kansas each September.
The Dulcimer lists new at $840

I also have a nice Custom Coon Hollow Canvas case.  It cost $200

Also included is a stand that was pretty nice.  My dog gnawed on the leg a bit so it doesn't look as nice but is still functional.

I will also include over $100 of hammers so you can try out a few and get the feel of what you like.

I loved this instrument but, for whatever reason, it didn't agree with me and hurts my shoulders when I play.  My primary teacher was an older person who played 6 hour gigs.  But...not for me I guess.

This instrument would be a nightmare to ship.  Local pickup.  If you're within a few hours drive of the Minneapolis area maybe we could arrange a meeting place.
