Folkcraft® Mountain Dulcimer String Set, Ball Ends (.011" .011" .013" .026"RW)

Item Number 2346555

Regular price $9.00

The ultimate set of dulcimer strings. This is the string set we've been installing on new Folkcraft dulcimers since 2012. (It is also the set that Folkcraft owner Richard Ash has on his personal dulcimer!)

Strings in this set:
Melody strings .011
Middle string: .013
Bass string: .026RW

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.

Great strings and great people

Iordereda Seton strings for my mountain dulcimer and by mistake I ordered them for a baritone dulcimer. So I called Folkcraft to order a replacement set. To my surprise, she sent the order out and asked me to return the wrong set. Quite surprised actually. I think this is just another thing that makes Richard and Folkcraft so great. He and his staff really care!
