Are you used to playing a guitar? Our Folkcraft custom brand six string hourglass dulcimer is designed to have the powerful sound that you have grown accustomed to with a 12-string guitar. This powerful instrument has the projection you need for any large arena or outdoor performance. The black walnut body coupled with a sugar maple soundboard creates a fat, mellow tone that projects. The royal purpleheart accents are a nice contrast to the other woods, plus the purpleheart protects the fingerboard from strumming scratches. Our custom six string dulcimer has all the finishing touches - from mother of pearl fret dots, black chrome finished enclosed gear heads to the "F" heart tone holes. This instrument is sure to make you stand out from the crowd.
Folkcraft Instruments is the premier manufacturer of a truly authentic American tradition – the dulcimer. The Folkcraft brand has had a long standing tradition of excellence since it was created in 1974. As a family-owned business with two generations of luthiers, we strive to create quality crafted instruments for you. That is why we hand select all our woods for appearance as well as tone quality. Plus, all of our instruments are signed by the craftsman. Look inside your dulcimer for the artisan's signature. As you can see, Folkcraft is the perfect choice for your dulcimer purchase.
