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. On this straightened wire, you'll want to cut a fret slot at least.058 inches deep, so that the crown will sit flush with your fingerboard. This item is also part of our dulcimer hardware kit.

They're finally here - our ball end string set with the middle and bass strings utilizing the best roller wound (RW) strings available. Roller wound strings squeak less than regular strings, of course (since they're flattened a bit with rollers), but more importantly for this string set, they're made of a brass alloy (instead of the more commonly-found bronze alloy). Strings in this set: Melody string:.016 Middle string:.026RW Bass string:.034RW Bronze tends to give a warmer tone quality, but brass, especially with baritone and bass strings, tends to provide the player with a LOT more clarity. The instrument isn't as "muddy", which is a common problem for baritone and bass dulcimers. Available only in ball end, and only in 3-string sets (going for that clarity again!), this is the string set we're using on the Folkcraft-built baritone dulcimers.

She studied with Raymond Melton, one of the premier builders and players of the Galax-style dulcimer, and she has developed a reputation as both an amazing performer and an inspiring teacher. You won't find a better person (or a better book) to teach you the tunes, history, and historic traditions of Galax dulcimer playing. This stellar volume is the has songs, of course, but also has tons of photos, anecdotes, and historical background of the dulcimer in general, and of the Galax, Virginia variants that were so important to the evolution of our instrument.

(Phyllis talks about how to make a partial capo on page nineteen...) Instructions are also included for playing these songs in DAD tuning.
