As I walked in a clocked a hammered dulcimer in the corner. I've wanted one for years! After my autoharp questions were answered I asked about the hammered dulcimer. It was on consignment and had been for nearly a year. I asked how much it was and it could be in my price range. I was excited. They called the seller and we made a deal. So excited. It's a hammered dulcimer made in Nevada City. So special. No matter what you need in the music world this store has you covered even 50 years later. Everyone so friendly so helpful. Helped me carry my new instrument out to my car and gave me great ideas for my autoharp.

Lots of bongo drums! Big ones small ones cheap ones expensive ones. I asked the guy at the counter if the drum-playing ever got on his nerves and he said, "only at Christmas". Yobobo also has an enormous array of fun, simple, wood instruments that anyone can play. They also offer unique and hard to find instruments like a Donkey Call which I purchased. You hear it in Crazy Train and a lot of Cake songs. Yaaah! Truly a great store with very reasonable prices.
