Dusty String
Hammer Dulcimers

It seems that anyone who has heard the hammer dulcimer is moved by the experience. The tonality of Dusty String instruments are sweet without being thin, and sustained yet percussive. Located in Seattle, Washington, Dusty Strings has provided us with the highest level of quality dulcimers consistantly.

We carry many sizes from the Dusty String line. From the affordable Prelude and Apprentice packages which include a case and stand, to the truly impressive D-600 chromatic dulcimer, every standard dulcimer tuning is possible. The entry level instruments have the same quality of tone and workmanship as seen in their professional level instruments. In addition, the same level of workmanship is acheived by their line of nylon-strung folk harps.

Once you have played a Dusty Strings instument, you will immediatly recognize the difference between the cheaper instruments found at fairs, and what quality workmanship is about. As with all of our instruments, Dusty String duclimers are examined and setup by our knowledgable staff. If you have any questions regarding these instruments, email us.
