A 4-string dulcimer typically has a doubled melody string, while 5-string dulcimers add an extra bass string, allowing for more complex chord voicings and a fuller low-end tone.
This Roosebeck 5 string Appalachian "Grace" mountain dulcimer has offers great features at a low price. Its vaulted fret board makes it lighter and as a result there is more soundboard vibration, producing excellent sound quality. It has the traditional Appalachian hour glass shape and its body, neck, and fret board are solid Sheesham. Its end peg has a silver color and is shaped like a crown. This model also features 5 mechanical geared right angle tuners with a 14:1 ratio and has five strings, including 2 melody strings, 2 middle strings and 1 bass drone string. The soundboard is spruce and has a charming rosewood skirt design on both ends, as well as 4 of the classic f-hole openings. Includes Extra String Set ($10.95 Value), pick and slide. Free Shipping.
