Can I use guitar strings on a dulcimer?
If you need stainless steel or wound strings and you’re not near a “dulcimer string” source, you might be able to use a guitar or octave mandolin string of the same or smaller gauge if it’s long enough. Guitar strings will have a small ball in the loop that will need to be removed first.
How do you tune a dulcimer?
Place the dulcimer in your lap. The dulcimer’s tuning keys should be on your left. At the bottom of the fretboard (closest to you) should be the doubled string. Above that will be two single strings–one in the middle and one at the top (bass string). Place your electronic tuner near the dulcimer and turn it on.
How do you tune a guitar with an electronic tuner?
To use an electronic tuner, you can either plug your guitar into the tuner (if you’re using electric) or use the tuner’s built-in microphone (to tune an acoustic). For most models, you simply turn the tuner on and play a note. The display will show you how close you are to the desired string and which direction to go.
