Several of us are away at the Somerset Folk Harp Festival, and we may not be able to respond to emails and phone calls as quickly as usual. Thank you for your patience!
Where To Start
If you're new to harp or dulcimer, try our beginner guides as a starting point to get oriented!
Welcome to Dusty Strings! We are a small, family-owned business in Seattle, Washington. Since 1979, we have been following our dream of building harps and hammered dulcimers and helping others to fulfill their dreams of making music. Over the years, we've earned a reputation for caring about our instruments and the people who play them, and this shows itself both in the quality of our craftsmanship and the quality of our customer interactions. If you have any questions about our instruments or if you don't even know what questions to ask, we encourage you to give us a call. There will always be a friendly voice on the other end of the telephone!
We look forward to Somerset every year - meeting new people, catching up with old friends, admiring the fine work of our harp-building colleagues, talking shop, and watching someone's face light up when they sit down behind their soulmate harp for the first time.
