You picked a solution to dealing with newbie fingers that reduces your learning experience and will limit your playing abilities. It will be much more rewarding to master the nylon strings and learn how to play them without effort and make them sound great. This should only take a few hours of practice and once you accomplish that then decide if you still want to change strings.Hi,
I've just gotten a super tenor ukulele, the Kala KA-ASZCT-ST Solid Spruce top with Ziricote laminate back and sides. The strings that came with it were D'Addario nylon, very thick/stiff/hard hurt my newbie fingers, so I tried the Martin M620 tenor, which are too short and just as problematic, albeit with much better tone.
I'm looking for fluorocarbon strings that would be easier on my fingers. !
