- Instruments are built in North Carolina.
- The Woodrow is an upright variant of a traditional mountain dulcimer designed to be held like a guitar or ukulele.
- The Woodrow uses a do-re-mi fret pattern and can be played by navigating one string set with one finger.
- The family remains involved in the instrument-building process.
- The business moved from a seven-year Grove Arcade shop to operating strictly online.
