It can be confusing as a newbie purchasing strings. I didn't realize there were so many choices. My question is what is the difference between medium or light tension strings, particlarly Worths. Thanks.
Aloha Roxhum,
As for me, the thinner the strings they have a brighter sound and more playability and the medium's have a warmer sound....it's a balance or choice which is more important to you....I hope it helped, Good Luck!!
Have fun and enjoy!! Happy Strummings...MM Stan
The quality of the strings themselves is important, too. Cheap strings can sound dead or like toys. I do enjoy a bright tone, but a rich, full sound, too. Sample different strings to find your brand.
Dirk's done some great work this winter re-designing his site: http://www.southcoastukes.com/stringuide.htm. There's a lot of great string info here, including the answer to your question.
Got to play a Mainland concert the other day, by the way. Ah, memories...
