The Folkcraft Custom Series mountain dulcimer has everything you might possibly want in a handcrafted instrument. Our largest body (8” wide at the lower bout, 2 1/4” deep), your choice of both domestic and exotic woods, and much, much more - from scale length to sound holes. Go crazy and configure YOUR ideal dulcimer!

Folkcraft Custom Series dulcimers are available in both a traditional Kentucky body and in a more contemporary California body. The Kentucky body creates a quieter, more subdued tone, and the California body offers a louder, more mellow, more guitar-like tone quality. More information can be found here.

Each of our handmade dulcimers comes with our best soft carrying case, made here in the Folkcraft workshop. Our rigid case, which offers more protection, is available for an upcharge. Strap buttons are also included.

There are a lot of options to choose when designing an instrument for us to make for you. We have a reference/resource page here, and you're always welcome to contact us for help and guidance in making great choices.

Please allow us three to four months for shipping on your custom-built instrument.

LOVE THIS DULCIMER!

I am a complete beginner to a stringed instrument. Started out with a cardboard dulcimer that my daughter bought me to see if I would like it. Fell in love with the ease of learning to play a dulcimer and called the Folkcraft people. Got it very quickly. It is beautiful and sounds great!

Folkcraft Custom Dulcimer Spruce & Sycamore

Amazing! In my 50 years + of stringed instrument playing I can't remember such a seamless acquisition and such a perfectly constructed and beautiful tool. In my 3 weeks of ownership I'm amazed at the developing tone and voice. This instrument is a pure joy. Thank you!

Fun chromatic dulcimer

The chromatic maxdad is the fun one because it sounds like a whole dulcimer choir from standard all the way down to bass. BTW the maxdad option on any dulcimer should have its own fretboard, 5 tuners on a traditional flathead (or contemporary flat head if possible) since it has 5 strings equally spaced apart.

creative folksy artisan my dulcimer arrived quickly and extremely well protected and wrapped.

I loved dealing with a creative artist.

Fishman Prefix Pro Blend Review

I already gave my review of the Folkcraft Custom Dulcimer, so this review is strictly for the Fishman Prefix Pro Blend pickup. Richard installed this on my dulcimer a few years after I had gotten my custom dulcimer. He did a nice job and was very accommodating to get it done for me. The pickup itself is awesome, and worth every penny. I love its acoustic tone and the possible adjustments. Richard even sent me home with good suggestions and a written sheet to help with using the pickup. Whether you order this with your custom build or choose to get it later, it's a good pickup to have.
