We’re excited to share a new chapter for the Boondocker line: the Boondocker Celtic Series, a collaborative release developed in partnership with Inglewood Instruments.
This project grew out of a shared belief that great instruments deserve great education—and that new players thrive when those two things are thoughtfully connected.
A Collaborative Release
The Boondocker Celtic Series is the result of close collaboration between Jaromin and Inglewood Instruments, one of the most respected voices in dulcimer guitar education today. Rather than treating instruments and learning as separate paths, this partnership brings them together in a way that benefits players from day one.
These instruments are available exclusively through Inglewood Instruments.
The Boondocker Celtic Models
The Celtic Series introduces two new electric Boondocker variants, each built around a common core design with carefully chosen material differences.
Shared features across both models:
-
- Maple body for clarity and balance
-
- Spruce top, laser-engraved with a custom Celtic pattern
-
- Electric configuration for stage, studio, and amplified practice
-
- Compact Boondocker form factor designed for accessibility and playability
Celtic Maple
-
- Maple body
-
- Maple fretboard
-
- Bright, articulate response with a clean, focused feel
Celtic Rosewood
-
- Maple body
-
- Rosewood fretboard
-
- Slightly warmer feel under the fingers with added visual contrast
Both models are built to the same performance standards, offering players a choice based on feel and aesthetic rather than a hierarchy of “better” or “worse.”
Why Inglewood Instruments
Inglewood Instruments has built one of the most comprehensive and approachable dulcimer guitar learning libraries available today. Their educational resources have helped countless players get started—and keep going—on the instrument.
By making the Celtic Series available exclusively through Inglewood, we’re reinforcing a simple idea:
an instrument is only as successful as the player behind it.
This partnership allows new owners to step directly into a proven learning ecosystem, rather than starting from scratch.
Availability
The Boondocker Celtic Maple and Boondocker Celtic Rosewood are now available through their store at https://heyinglewood.com/collections/the-boondocker.
Looking Ahead
This collaboration represents more than a single product release. It’s part of a broader effort to make the Boondocker platform more welcoming, more complete, and more supportive of new players.
We’re proud of these instruments—and even more excited about where this partnership leads next.
