Folkcraft® Mountain Dulcimer String Set, Bass, Ball Ends (.024"RW .032"RW .054"RW)

Item Number 9080772

Regular price $18.00

They're finally here - our ball end string set with the melody, middle, and bass strings utilizing the best roller wound (RW) strings available. Roller wound strings squeak less than regular strings, of course (since they're flattened a bit with rollers), but more importantly for this string set, they're made of a brass alloy (instead of the more commonly-found bronze alloy). 

Bronze tends to give a warmer tone quality, but brass, especially with baritone and bass strings, tends to provide the player with a LOT more clarity. The instrument isn't as "muddy", which is a common problem for baritone and bass dulcimers.

Strings in this set:
Melody string: .024RW
Middle string: .032RW
Bass string: .054RW

Available only in ball end, and only in 3-string sets (going for that clarity again!), this is the string set we're using on the Folkcraft-built bass dulcimers.

They sound great

I’ve only been building for about six months so the one string I broke was most likely my fault but when you hear them played they’re worth the price.
