I was wondering if there were any long term problems if I strung my soprano with concert strings. I understand that the tension might be different but what consequences will I face?
My Kala 15s has Concert Aquilas and it has held up fine. Waiting for the strings to settle took a VERY long time, but I have to say that the concerts give the K15s a nice zing. I haven't noted any signs of stress or weird buzzes.
I put tenor worth clears on my kamaka soprano. And I'd describe it as a different but not necessarily better sound. It has more roundness to the tone, but I'd say that it also makes the instrument sound more dull and hollow.
