Folkcraft® Mountain Dulcimer String Set, DAA Tuning, Ball Ends (.013" .015" .024"RW)

Item Number 90801251

Regular price $12.00

This set of Folkcraft brand dulcimer strings (mountain dulcimer string set) will keep your DAA-tuned mountain dulcimer sounding great. These ball end strings come in a set of three with the following gauges: .013, .015, .024RW.

Strings in this set:
Melody string: .013
Middle string: .015
Bass 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.

Thicker melody string!

LOVE using these on my dulcimers. Having a beefier melody string is great for this tuning. No more floppy melody strings!
