Yep, love that bit of Mid Eastern twang and great funky timing, like Uncle John says!!

Wonderful! My dulcitar from Jags House should arrive next week. I have picked up some sets of strings intended for Balkan and Middle Eastern instruments-silver over steel, etc. and will try a few different tunings until I find one that "works"? Sounds great? I'm coming to the CBG with zero musical knowledge but a good ear and memory. Thanks to all of you for posting so many helpful comments.

Yep, I like dulcitar too. I've been calling them various names but think I'll stick with that one for now. Don't think I mentioned it but the scale is 25".

Good deal..that had a real nice groove go'n on

Huh!   Not what I expected to hear from a dulci.   Really good, funky, a bit jazzy and for sure middle Easterny.  Good stuff, girl.   Really feeling it.

And a mighty fine dulci.    

I got to get me some of that talent stuff.   Wish I could.

Cool - what tuning is it?
