Folkcraft® Mountain Dulcimer String Set, Ball Ends (.011" .011" .013" .024"RW)

Item Number 2346554

Regular price $14.00

The ultimate set of dulcimer strings. This is the string set we've been installing on new Folkcrafts since 2012. (It is also the set that Folkcraft owner Richard Ash has on his personal dulcimer!)

Strings in this set:
Melody strings (2): .011
Middle string: .013
Bass string: .024RW

The "RW" stands for Roller-Wound. The roller wound strings have a steel core, with a brass winding. The brass winding has been flattened with rollers, creating a warm sound with very little string squeak.

Walnut fret board

The original walnut fret board that was shipped had two small imperfections one in the nut cut and another on an edge. Folkcraft sent a free replacement the same day that I notified them. The new piece looks great. Thanks

Ball end RW dulcimer string set

I like the way these strings sound and these strings are easy to play. They make this dulcimer sound good. Thanks.

The dulcimers were a hit!

I ordered the dulcimers as part of our study of Appalachia; making them was a selling point. My students, grades 6,7 and 8, assembled them (we did get the prepared fret boards) and had a great time learning to play them.

Trusted supplier

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.
