Looking for Lighting Ideas. I need to be able to see this instrument better. « on: May 30, 2021, 05:39:22 PM » Author: Pandariffic
(What the instrument is)The Hammered Dulcimer is a percussion-stringed instrument which consists of strings typically stretched over a trapezoidal resonant sound board. Q: I'm having troubles seeing with the bad lighting/bad eyes around my Hammered Dulcimer. Asking if anyone could lead me in a direction of better lights, so I can see instrument when I play.

Ceramic metal-halide or high-CRI fluorescent would probably be the best choice. What all light sources have you tried?

I remember seeing someone playing one of these at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco a few years ago, it looks as though it requires a fair bit of skill to play.
