I had tried Ko'Olau Alohi strings on my longneck soprano for a while because the intonation was better than with medium fluorocarbon strings, and the uke doesn't like the heavy fluorocarbon strings that I use on most of my ukes (pinched the sound right down to nothing when I tried it).
Today at lunch I put on some Alohi strings again, but this time a tenor set. These I really like. Not quite as chimey as the fluorocarbon but a good full sound and nice ring, better feel (I like more tension) and intonation, and it didn't pinch the sound like heavy fluorocarbon strings did.
