hey guys I was wondering if you guy can recommend any strings for my friend? im getting him strings for xmas. He wants black strings and he said he needs concert low G strings.
I'm not to sure on the brand,, (did'nt take much notice of that when i put them on),, but i highly recomend black strings,,, i give them an absolute thrash'n and they still hold up strong,, and sound good too,,,

I've used Hilo strings with low G for my soprano. They sound pretty good, but they felt like wet noodles after a few weeks use. Maybe I just played a lot, though.
I wish I had experience on black fluorocarbon strings, but I don't. Worth Clear fluorocarbons are pretty good though. They're much skinnier than nylons.
i second that...My hilo uke came with hilo strings and sounded great...i put on GHS and it sounded terrible, they were a much lighter gauge, the hilos i had were big fatties and sounded perfect... i have the GHS for a day and replaces with with black d'darios and those alight, but not as good as my hilo's were
I just bought ORCAS black fluorocarbon strings for tenor ukulele last night from MGM. Now I just have to wait for them! I'll try to make a D'addario Pro Arté J71 vs. ORCAS video comparison with my Pono Tenor Mango Cutaway. My PTM-CE tends to be boomy in general. I'm looking for something to cut out some of its boominess. Mango seems like a really dense wood.
