Ok, so I needed to replace the GHS Black Nylon strings on my Mahalo U-30 soprano.
All I had on hand was a set of Aquila Nylgut hi-G for TENOR.
Throwing caution to the wind and not wanting to wait for something to come in the mail like 10 days from now, I installed them on the soprano, and
HOLY high water -
wait for it....
Nothing bad happened...yet.
So, I am now just waiting for the 'OMG and INSANE' tension of the tenor strings to rip the bridge from the soprano's soundboard? Ha!
Or is the only real difference the length of the string in the package?
Please, tell me true - should I worry or change anything from here or is it 'ok' what I did?
I should add that it seems to play just fine, and I am really looking forward to when the strings are done stretching.
Thank you,
