This set of six dulcimer strings is going to make your six-string dulcimer sound great. Providing a good balance of tone, brightness, and clarity, these strings will play well and sound great.
Strings in this set:
Melody strings (2): .011
Middle strings (2): .013
Bass strings (1 each of): .011 and .024BW
When we string up six-string instruments here in the shop, well use two .011 strings for the melody course, two .013 strings for the middle course, and one .011 and one .024BW string for the bass course. The melody strings are tuned in unison, the middle strings are tuned in unison, and the bass strings are tuned one-high (same as the melody string) and one-low (one octave below the melody string).
