Interesting
Dulcimer Hammers |
Some
of Jenny Coxon's Hammers |
Some
Chinese Bamboo Hammers |
According
to Jenny, the hammer ends of these are used for hitting & the pointed
end of the handle is used for picking the wires, all without changing
the implement. Wonder if that idea first came from a Scotsman? |

Jenny's friend Stan, seen playing here, explained that these double-headed hammers
are a new innovation. |
