Shipping costs

Howdy Stands: $45 USD to U.S. addresses. $60 USD to Canadian addresses.

Extra braces: ship free to U.S. addresses. $22 USD to Canadian addresses.

If you are outside the U.S. and Canada, please email us with your postal code, and we will calculate a shipping estimate for you. We want to support dulcimer players worldwide!

Note: Stands are shipped with signature required for delivery, unless otherwise requested.

Taxes

As Oregon is a no sales tax state, and we are a very small business, we are not required to collect sales tax from residents in the U.S. or Canada. Maybe put the savings towards another dulcimer?

Thank you so much for your order and supporting our small business!

Follow these few steps to get the right fit for your instrument:

Step 1: Choose your dulcimer body style: Hourglass, Teardrop, Elliptical, Custom

Step 2: Determine if your instrument’s dimensions are compatible with our standard size braces.

Step 3: Order the appropriate style/size

If you are unsure of the correct brace size or need a custom size, contact us and we’ll get the measurements we need to get the right fit.

Production time

All Howdy Stands and components are built to order in our Oregon workshop. Build times will vary, but will generally be 1-2 weeks. We know you want to get pickin’, so we’ll build and fulfill orders as quickly as we can. We will notify you when we have an estimated ship date.
