Mark Wade Signature Flexible Hammers
Important Note: Mark's Signature Hammers have been sold out. Due to an unfortunate set of events, the builder can no longer produce Mark's hammers.
These remarkable hammers pull the sound out of your dulcimer instead of beating the sound in like traditional hammers. Mark's Signature Flexible Hammers reduce hammer noise and bring out more overtones from your strings. These hammers are best suited for intermediate to advanced players who already have good hammer technique. Proper grip and control will maximize the whipping motion needed for flexible hammers to achieve their full potential. They come in 3 lengths: 8.5in, 9.5in, and Mark's favorite 10.5in hammers!
All hammers include Mark's customized hammer head and contoured grip. The shafts are all made with authentic bamboo, and the heads are selected for balance and for tone using Maple. All hammers include leather heads, (which are great for soft playing), unless you specify wood only. Mark Wade Flexible Hammers are available only on this site and in select stores.
