Notice: Though we always have and will continue to build our instruments in Seattle, WA, USA, most of our materials are specialized and must be imported. We regret that due to the impact of the higher tariffs we're paying now, we had to raise our instrument prices on August 15th.
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're less than a month away from the 25th annual Somerset Folk Harp Festival! We look forward to Somerset every year, and we're especially delighted to be a part of this impressive quarter century milestone.
