Aloha folks-
I'd initially planned on installing a low 4th/G on my Kanile'a K-2 dlx along with the new Ph.D's I popped on, but the standard reentrant set sounds so awesome that I'm hesitant to re-cut the nut to accommodate my "go-to" low 4th (Freemont polished "squeakless" Soloist,) which is a few hairs too thick to properly ride in the 4th slot.
While I realize I may experience some intonation issues by leaving the nut angle dialed-in for the reentrant 4th, I'm itchy to give the low 4th a shot & see what she sounds like with this combination.
Anybody have any recommendations for a thinner gauge 4th (less than ~.70mm anyway)??
Prefer wound &/or metal-wrapped, but would also consider a polymer string.
Mahalo in advance for any input/advice!
