Overview
Roosebeck builds the knotwork Grace with a spruce top and a walnut body, giving a warmer, darker character than the rosewood version. The Celtic sound holes come from woven manuscript borders and are laser engraved into the top.
DAD tuning means the open strings form a chord, so a beginner hears music right away. Expect to retune often at first, since strings stretch in transit and settle over several days. Geared tuners make that quick.
Who it's for
Written for someone starting a first dulcimer who enjoys Celtic style design and does not mind frequent tuning at the beginning. Skip it if you need warranty cover on strings.
Pros and cons
- DAD tuning from the start

- Frequent early retuning needed

Performance notes
New strings relax during shipping and bed in over the first days, which is why pitch drifts at first. Spruce responds clearly whether strummed or fingerpicked, and walnut adds warmth, while geared tuners make small corrections fast.
