I don't post much, but I thought that I would chime in here. I just acquired an Ohana TK-50G (tenor uke with solid cedar top and solid rosewood back and sides). Prior to now, my only uke has been an Ohana CK-10S (concert uke with solid mahogany top and laminated mahogany back and sides). All that I have ever played on the CK-10S were Aquila Super Nylgut strings, and they sounded good to my untrained ear. When I received the TK-50G it was strung with the same strings, and it was quite brash. I liked the punchy sound and the string clarity, but the sound was just "in your face" brash. So I put some Worth Browns on it today, and, wow, what a difference in tone. It sounds SO different (and better). I'm looking forward to putting it through the paces and seeing how it responds over time. I think that next I'll try to Living Waters or some Oasis Warms on it.
