Sigh... I swore to myself I would never post a "what strings?" thread, but....
I picked up an open back, soprano banjolele (Morgan Monroe) last weekend. I'm looking for a really bright, punchy sound - thinking monofilament nylgut Aquillas - but then I started thinking, what if I used a low G string?
Has anyone tried it? How does it sound? My concern is that it might be too punchy, that the low G will overwhelm the trebles.
(OK, will somebody just tell be to buy the damn strings and try it. I tend to overthink things!)
