"Syd Woodley"

Syd was my main inspiration to start playing again. His confidence in me was much greater than my own. Although never a player himself, he was the 'ideas' man, coming up with many innovations on instrument construction. Like myself Syd was a plater by trade, we often talked about building an aluminium framed dulcimer, but due to Syd's ill health, talking was as far as we got, other than a few rough drawings.
