While on a camping trip in The Great Smokey Mountains, Don and Betty heard a dulcimer being played in the camp ground. This was the beginning for Don to start building musical instruments. He has built Mountain Dulcimers, and Autoharps. Chestnut Ridge Autoharps and Mountain Dulcimers are built using top quality wood. Autoharp frames are constructed using piano pin block maple and hard maple. Autoharp and Mountain Dulcimer tops, backs, and sides are crafted using quarter sawn walnut, cherry, and sitka spruce. Special woods, such as, Koa, Paduk, and Cedar may be ordered for Chestnut Ridge instruments.
