I use Folkcraft strings on all of my dulcimers. They bring out the best sound - so sweet, strong, and with fabulous sustain! I was fortunate to win an EBay auction for a Jack Ferguson custom dulcimer recently, and the strings on it were quite dull, even though they were not “old”. I just had Folkcraft strings put on yesterday, and I am thrilled with how that gorgeous dulcimer’s true voice has bloomed! I can’t wait to play it through my amp! Thank you, Folkcraft 🙂
