Folkcraft® Mountain Dulcimer String Set, Baritone, Ball Ends (.014" .014" .022"BW .034"BW)

Item Number 2310024

Regular price $13.00

These Folkcraft brand baritone dulcimer strings sound amazing and are designed for the baritone models, which are typically tuned in the key of A, or a 4th below a standard dulcimer.

Strings in this set:
Melody strings (2): .014
Middle string: .022BW
Bass string: .034BW

The "BW" stands for Bronze-Wound. Bronze wound string have been the "standard" for decades. They have a steel core, with a bronze alloy winding. Bronze wound strings are warm, compared to the brass (roller wound) and stainless-steel wound strings. They do tend to have more finger squeak, though, and they don't last as long as the stainless steel strings. 

The tone and clarity you get with these strings is amazing and is sure to provide great feel as well. The string sizes in this set are .014, .014, .022BW and .034BW.

max DAD string set

I've giving this set a 5-star because they are the same items (but different gauges) that I usually order in bulk. Have not yet started the build of my MaxDAD but I'm confident that this set of FolkCraft strings will perform past my expectations.

Finally adding a 4th string to the Baritone Dulcimer

I did switch back to the Original 4 String Baritone Dulcimer strings & to get the .013 Strings in the Treble position to ring clear enough, I had to extend the scale length by 5 extra inches from 29 inches to 34 inches. Thankfully these strings were actually made 3 feet longer than guitar strings.

New strings

New strings arrived on time, no issues. They sound great on my new (to me,) Warren May. Also, a new set of bass strings are performing as expected.

Baritone strings

Trying these strings out on my old kit dulcimer. So far I really enjoy the sound I am getting.

Top Quality

I bought these loop end strings to re-string my 45 year old dulcimer. They sound great.
