Low G Worth Brown

Where can I but a single Low G Worth Brown string? I've recently restrung with Worth Browns and now nothing will do but to try Low G tuning. Really hate to waste the whole set. Also really hate to wait until the next string change.

Thank you. I've placed an order

Ok received, strung, played. It sounds really odd to me.

Low G sounds great to me. How long have you been playing reentrant? Or are you saying the string doesn't "match" the rest of the set tonally?

This is my first go at low G tuning. Only been playing since last August. So one issue is just that it is a strange sound my ear hasn't adjusted to yet.

I had Worth Browns (3 weeks old) on and just swapped the high G for low G. I think the set will be pretty well matched tonally when the new string settles. This makes it an all unwound set. It came with a wound C set of Koolau Mahana strings, I think. I thought them too strong, like the wound C didn't belong. Re-entrant Worths were very much to my liking.

The Pono tenor is a big sounding uke so I hear a lot of sound from the new string. It has almost a rubber band sound to it. I expect that to go away once it has finally stopped stretching in week or so.

Mostly, it makes the ukulele sound like a guitar. If I wanted to play guitar I'd play guitar. But I'll give it a month before deciding. By then it will sound normal to me.
