Folkcraft® Roller-Wound Brass Strings, Ball Ends, Pack Of Twelve, .034

Item Number 9072277

Regular price $34.00

Twelve roller-wound brass strings. This is the string that Folkcraft started using for its dulcimer bass string back in 2012. A bit brighter, a bit smoother to the fingers, and a bit louder. The ultimate wound string for your dulcimer!

These strings are sometimes called "squeakless", and they certainly squeak less than regular (not roller-wound) strings. However, there's no such thing as an entirely squeakless string. We recommend these strings wholeheartedly.

This particular string is .034" (34/1000 of one inch) in diameter, and is sometimes called .034RW. Each string has a total length of 37 inches (37"), and has approximately 36" of that total length covered with the brass winding.

Smooth transitions

Picked up a folkroot rugg n jackel at a flea market in Coventry ct this past summer. Vintage 1983. Cleaned it up and put a set of your strings. Very nice action. Fingers can slide easily no squeaks. Decent sound for its size.

Need some variation

I've played with our club, Blue Grass Dulcimer Club for many years. One day I decided I wanted to add another "sound" to our music. I built my first bass dulcimer, using the roller-wound strings from FolkCraft. Especially with those larger sizes....32, and especially .54 these strings are easier to play and with MUCH less "squeek". I think they're great!
