My go-to for dulcimer parts
I have been building dulcimers for decades and have purchased most of the hardware for the instruments from Folkcraft due to the quality of the parts, reasonable price, and the excellent customer service. Highly recommend!

Machine Heads/Open Gear/Chrome Tuners
Real pleased with the installation ease and the quality of the tuners! Very Happy that they work smoothly. The spare screw didnt get used but I appreciated the thought since my workshop floor has spaces in the floor boards!
