Folkcraft® Roller-Wound Brass Strings, Ball Ends, Pack Of Twelve.044

Twelve roller-wound brass strings. This is the string that Folkcraft started using for its dulcimer bass string back in 2012. A bit brighter, a bit smoother to the fingers, and a bit louder. The ultimate wound string for your dulcimer!These strings are sometimes called "squeakless", and they certainly squeak less than regular (not roller-wound) strings. However, there's no such thing as an entirely squeakless string. We recommend these strings wholeheartedly.This particular string is .044" (44/1000 of one inch) in diameter, and is sometimes called .044RW. Each string has a total length of 37 inches (37"), and has approximately 36" of that total length covered with the brass winding.
