This set of Folkcraft brand dulcimer strings (mountain dulcimer string set) will keep your instrument sounding great. These ball end strings come in a set of three with the following gauges: .012, .015, .024RW.
Strings in this set:Melody string: .012Middle string: .015Bass 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.
If you play your dulcimer set up with three strings (instead of four), then we're recommending these gauges - the balance across the strings is better for three-string players. (Some people take off the extra melody string of a four-string dulcimer string set, and play with 011, .013, and .024RW, but the slightly heavier gauges of our optimized three-string set are better for most players and most instruments.)This mountain dulcimer string set is the same set of strings that we use on the instruments we make in the Folkcraft wood shop.
My first time replacing strings on my dulcimer - I had no problem getting these installed. Product was as advertised and arrived in a timely manner.
Really like these strings. Very smooth and easy to install.
Just what I needed, and delivered promptly. Folkcraft is a wonderful resource for all things dulcimer
I always use Folkcraft strings for all my dulcimers. I've tried others in the past but I still think this is the best quality for the price.
When you get your strings from Folkcraft you know they are the correct ones and high quality.
