from 2905 reviewsThis book is so much fun. We are trying to make some changes in our dulcimer group. Wonderful to have 2 parts

Really nice book to teach from. I am using it for my 8 year old granddaughter

We use this book in our dulcimer group. So many songs to pick from.

I love folkcraft selection of dulcimer books. Shipping is very fast and shipped in nice box to protect them
Folkcraft Instruments, Mr. Ash, My husband called and talked with you over the phone and you answered all of his questions. We then placed our order under my name, because I had already created an account. We are just beginners, and I mean beginners. The 2" strap is for my husband Chris, and the 1" strap is for me. I think they are great. We both like the quick release, and the leather ends that fastens onto the buttons on the dulcimer. We also got new strings, and oh my, what a difference they make! My husband is all set and ready to take his first lessons, in 1 week.
Thank you,
Sincerely, Teresa Isbell
So, the items we ordered, we are very pleased and satisfied. Thank you very much and talking with you over the phone was as if we were talking with a friend, as if we have known you for years. You were very friendly and helpful in answering the questions we had.

I have not finished the build these strings are going to used on. I do know that Folkcraft has always been a reliable provider of the quality materials I expect.

Work very well. Perfect for my lower tuning

Shelley has many Bakers Dozen Books, but our group is excited to use #11 Duet Book, it sounds so much better when everyone is not playing the music. Most of our group has some of her other books.
Judy House - Favorite Sing-Along Songs For The Mountain Dulcimer

It's always a good experience buying from Folkcraft. Prices are reasonable. Quality us good and shipping is fast.

Our daughter got this book for my husband for Christmas. He loves it. We love playing together and the tunes are beautiful.

I love this book and really appreciate
that she has made the words to the songs available on her website. The songs are easy to play so they are perfect for sing alongs!

The service was outstanding, and my order arrived on time. The strap work as it should, and I will buy from this again.

Excellent support ordering replacement components for faulty dulcimer kit pieces. (This was not a Folkcraft kit.) Richard is so nice to work with me to rebuild a defective dulcimer kit. Thanks Richard!
