I know I'm not the only one who has been curious about these.
I figured I'd post my experience with them so far and maybe others will add their take on them.
I'm still figuring out what I like in strings as far as thick/thin and tension. My first exploration of Worth strings was with brown lights, which I like.
This time I invested in clears.
A recent addition to the household was my blue beater, a High School Musical concert uke by Washburn. Purchased at a discount place, it reminded me more of another Disney franchise: Toy Story. In particular, the character named Buzz.
It did get a little quick attention at the local luthier in exchange for some lunch money, but there was still an occasional remnant of buzz.
The fat strings pretty much solved that.
They are a harder string, but I know the high tension is part of that.
Louder, more resonant. Yet not harsh. So far, this is one of the most dramatic conversions strings have provided to any of my cheapies.
My husband is liking these strings even more than I. But he's a lifelong musician who has favored heavy gauge strings on his guitars. I might see if he'd like the other half of this set for his Lanikai concert.
If there's a situation again where I think I might want to try fat strings, I'm checking out the brown ones next time.
