Is there a substantial difference, or are we talking about tiny degrees of variation?
Tried Worth strings (clear) on my tenor uke and found the lower strings to be flubby and lifeless. I'm sure they sound great on some instruments, but mine was definitely not a match. I'm a big fan of the Aquila Red series, but they seem to be kind of delicate, and more prone to breakage. If there's a great-sounding alternative that's a bit more durable and stays in tune better, I'm all ears.
What do you think? Should I investigate other brands of fluorocarbons, or titaniums, perhaps? Or should I just stick with the Aquila Reds (which I love the sound of, but again, wish they were more durable)? Is there a bright, snappy nylon set worth considering?
BTW, I am only interested in low-G sets.
