Hi folks, I've been flat out renovating our house the last few months & sadly had little time for ukin' & UU, but today it rained & it was a bit dangerous up on the 6 meter scaffolding, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to record a quick video sound sample of the new Oasis Fluorocarbon Baritone Strings. Not really knowing what to expect, I fitted these to my Kinnard Super tenor, which is a 19" scale length. I tuned up & arrived at GCEA which was a happy place for tension & tone, although the A string was a little bit tight. The A string ended up breaking so I replaced it with a slightly heavier gauge string (a standard Oasis E string)
and happy days I'll see how they go over the next couple of weeks, I don't usually use an unwound 4th string, so the jury is still out in that regard Gauges are 4th 0.93, 3rd 0.82, 2nd 0.74, 1st 0.62, I replaced the 1st string with a standard Oasis E string which was 0.67
