Good news for 5-string players: Your search for strings is
over! Emando is now the only place in the universe where you
can buy a set of five electric mandolin strings for CGDAE
tuning. (If you want an 8-string set
or an octave mandolin set,
guess what—I sell those, too.) Here are the details:

The A and E strings are plain steel; the C, G, and D
strings are roundwound with nickel steel. Sets are
available with either loop-end or ball-end strings. You
will automatically get ball-end strings unless you
specify loop-end. Also be sure to specify the gauge you
want.

If you want to calculate the string tension you'll get when
you put these strings on your mandolin, use this handy calculation tool. Along with your payment,
please include your name, address (P.O. boxes OK), and
e-mail address, and specify loop-end or ball-end. |
