Would this work with a banjo dulcimer?

If the bridge of the dulcimer is like a banjo bridge or very similar, my guess is that it should work. I can only say this from what I have seen in pictures. I hope this helps.

Kathleen I don't know about dulcimers. The bridge would have to be the same thickness as a banjo and at least 3 8th inch clearance between the strings and the instrument. I love mine. No hassle just slides under the strings.

You can use the banjo mute long as your bridge is at least half inch tall. You don't want the this device to touch the strings.

As long as your dulcimer has a drum head and standard banjo bridge, it should be fine. Check your bridge.Good luck.Melanie

Hi Kathleen...thanks for writing. Does the bridge on the banjo dulcimer look like the typical banjo bridge (like in this photo?) If it is a thin bridge like that, it definitely will work. If the bridge is thicker, like an adjustable bridge of an F model on a mandolin, then the mute would not fit. The opening on the mute fits the banjo bridge perfectly--so go by that; it slides on and off easily. I am very satisfied with this mute and it works really great--it 'stays put' too. Good luck!

I've used it on a couple different banjo bridges. It works well with both. My teacher also taught me to use to wooden cloths pins on the ends of the bridge, which also works pretty well. The banjo mute is quitter but also a smooth sound. I'm sorry, don't know about a banjo dulcimer.

Yep. Most resonator banjos will have a way of detaching the resonator plate from the back as well.

No, it's too narrow. It WOULD work for a banjo or mandolin (in addition to a uke, of course).

I'm not familiar with that banjo. I would measure the resonator at the widest point and the overall length of the banjo, and compare to the specs of the case. Good luck!

I have this stand and I think it would work well for a banjo. It worked for my old Ovation guitar (which had the rounded back) and it works with my new guitar. The tongs might stick out a bit, but that would not hinder it from working well.

It fits an open back really well, but I think it could work for a resonator banjo too. Might be a tight squeeze, though, depending on the size of the resonator.

If I attach it to the very bottom of the scroll on either of my 4/4s, the "high" arrow is sometimes obscured by the D peghead, otherwise it works just fine. I have used it with my 5-string banjo, mandolin and many guitars. Other than its questionable ability to "hear" the lowest notes and giving false note assignments (ubiquitous in every quartz tuner) it works as well, if not better, than any of the 7 tuners I have ever used.

I'm not sure. It takes up a lot or width in my guitar sound hole. I do use the third smaller packet that comes with the set for my banjo. I just lay it on top of the banjo in its case. The packets are pretty flexible and I think might work in your ukulele. I do like these. So much better than soaking and squeezing out water in other units.

Yes it will. While it's not perfect, it works nonetheless. It's built for a harp and it works great. Works fine with a kazoo, just not perfect.

My 5 string Resonator fits in this case. I have a Gretsch not an Ibanez. I think that if it is a standard sized banjo you should be okay.

It is used on regular auto harps so you might be able to tell from that description. It is a little wrench-type device used on auto harps so if the posts that hold the strings are the same size then it should work. Read the description of the tuner carefully for clues that might help you decide.

Check the dimensions on the site. I bought this last year for a grandson but I bought the banjo at the same time.

No it's too short..only good for fiddles and mandolins. A regular guitar stand works better for a mountain dulcimer.

It might. The opening of the hook is about 2 1/4 inches at its widest so the ukulele headstock would have to be wider than that. Otherwise it would slip through.

yes works great for mandolins I also use it for my dulcimer hope this helps

Have used it on tenor banjo, guitar, bouzouki, mandolin. It works fine on any stringed instrument. Very accurate and is one of the few tuners that will work well on the low strings.
