I've tried Aquila Nylguts and D'Addario J71s on my Mahogany tenor. The Aquilas deliver the volume and punch I need for playing into a mic onstage, the D'Addarios don't really cut it - in fact, I don't like them.
I'm tempted to try Worths, but the number of options intimidates me. Different colours, different tensions...
Can someone give me a hint, please? If I need a brightish, clear sound with plenty of projection and punch, which of the Worths should I try? Strength and definition of the sound are more important for me than a traditional tone. Also, I don't like the strings too soft and stretchy as I find that makes finger picking a bit fiddly.
Thanks for any guidance.
