The Overture is a three octave dulcimer; the lowest note is the D below middle C. There are 16 courses of strings on the treble bridge and 15 courses on the bass bridge. This configuration is often referred to as "16/15". Easily available keys are G, D, C, F and A, along with their relative minors. There are a variety of chromatic notes available in each key.
