Beautiful knobs and plating
We carry four distinct styles of knobs to give your new dulcimer that custom look or to match a vintage instrument.
Pick the look that's right for you.
- Ivoroid knobs are machined from Galalith, a dense and durable casein-based material that polishes beautifully. It resembles genuine ivory, but it's a non-animal alternative.
- Ebony knobs are machined from real wood; They're lightweight and add a custom look.
- Cream knobs give any instrument that killer vintage vibe.
- Pearloid knobs are made from a semi-translucent plastic and they pair well with older hardware.
