The Folkcraft Custom Series mountain dulcimer has everything you might possibly want in a handcrafted instrument. Our largest body (8” wide at the lower bout, 2 1/4” deep), your choice of both domestic and exotic woods, and much, much more - from scale length to sound holes. Go crazy and configure YOUR ideal dulcimer!

Folkcraft Custom Series dulcimers are available in both a traditional Kentucky body and in a more contemporary California body. The Kentucky body creates a quieter, more subdued tone, and the California body offers a louder, more mellow, more guitar-like tone quality. More information can be found here.

Each of our handmade dulcimers comes with our best soft carrying case, made here in the Folkcraft workshop. Our rigid case, which offers more protection, is available for an upcharge. Strap buttons are also included.

There are a lot of options to choose when designing an instrument for us to make for you. We have a reference/resource page here, and you're always welcome to contact us for help and guidance in making great choices.

Please allow us three to four months for shipping on your custom-built instrument.

Love my Folkcraft Custom Series Dulcimer!

I had been playing the mountain dulcimer for only a few months when I decided that I needed to upgrade to a dulcimer with a diatonic fret pattern 1.5, 6.5, 8.5, etc., that my old dulcimer did not have and would allow me to play more music. My appointment at Folkcraft was amazing! I wanted a quality instrument, but being very inexperienced, I needed guidance, and Richard was so helpful and patient! I selected a mahogany dulcimer with an Englemann spruce face. The scroll head and fret are padauk. It is a beautiful instrument and the sound is fantastic! I am completely happy with Folkcraft.

Cool Dulcimer

6 strings in 3 pairs gives it a nice ring. I was thinking of a version with 5 pairs of strings (10 in Total) called "MaxDAD X" because it would sound cool.

Beautiful Dulcimer, both in sound quality and build! Love it, thank you!

Beautiful in every way

The workmanship and artistry of my new dulcimer are inspiring. I’m a beginner and hope to do this lovely instrument justice.

Folkcraft® Custom Series Dulcimer, Maple Body

This dulcimer is beautiful! Great sustain mellow sound with the Galax bottom and a lot easier to play with shorter 25” VSL. I’m finding my flat picking is better as well.
