Folkcraft® Fret Wire, Four Feet

Item Number 2340081

Regular price $6.96

Our premium fret wire is 18% nickel-silver and comes pre-straightened, so you don't have to go through the hassle of working with curved fret wire. Dulcimer fret wire is sold in pieces that are twelve inches long. This package contains four one-foot pieces, for a total of four feet of fret wire. (It will take roughly three feet of fret wire to fully fret a diatonic mountain dulcimer.)

Our fret wire is a perfect size for use in building Appalachian dulcimers. The crown height (above the fingerboard) is .037 inches, the crown width is .080 inches, and the tang width is .019 inches. You'll want to cut a fret slot at least .058 inches deep, so that the crown will sit flush with your fingerboard.

Folkcraft Fret Wire

This fret wire was easy to install. I'm planning to make some more dulcimers in the future and will be ordering more supplies from Folkcraft Instruments.
Thank you.

I like that it has been straightened. That makes fret installation much easier.

Easier to work with than curved.

This wire was easier to work with than curved wire. It installed with a few taps and did not come out.
