TUNERS
Standard hardware for the Essential Serenade includes chrome finish tuning machines and strap buttons.
If you prefer the classy look of black hardware, you may upgrade to black tuners and strap buttons for the additional charge as shown.
BRIDGE SADDLE PICKUP
This option is for an LR Baggs bridge saddle pickup to be permanently installed and internally wired to a 1/4" cable jack that replaces the tailpiece end strap button. All you see is the cable jack / strap button.
If you ever want to play your dulcimer through an amplifier, or plug it in directly to a live sound system or recording interface, then this is a smart option. While this pickup can be installed at a later time, it is best to include it within your initial order to save you the cost of shipping your dulcimer both ways.
I have these pickups made to my specifications for string spacing, and they sound wonderfully natural with minimal audio processing. The best advantage of using a pickup in a live sound situation is being able to be heard in a large room without the typical microphone feedback problems.
CASE
Each Essential and Premium Tindle Dulcimer includes a soft padded "gig-bag" case. If you want the added protection of a traditional hardshell case, you can choose the hardshell case upgrade option for the added cost shown.
