Walnut/Butternut Folkcraft

I have had a Walnut/Butternut Folkcraft dulcimer for some years, and it's one of my go-to instruments. It is beautiful in looks and mellow in tone, easy to fret and sounds great!

Perfect for ballads

After a few years now, I want to affirm that my beautiful red cedar bass dulcimer has a special place in my heart and song list. Certain ballads sound so smooth a sweet on it. Those same tones would sound great added into a jam session.

Tap for End Pin Jack

It is a solid machined tap for the end pin jack. I am grateful they sell this so I don’t have to go find one to work with the end pin I bought.
