ABSTRACT:
A lapboard for an Appalachian dulcimer or like instrument holds the instrument in position on a person's lap and out of contact with the lap to enhance the tone level and quality of the instrument. Spring-loaded flap members of the lapboard contact the person's legs to prevent movement of the lapboard and of the instrument while the instrument is being played.
