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. I also know someone else who is in the same boat who needs a similar solution for a high-G Tenor.
In another thread I mentioned this and the responses were:
"track down a set of baritone GCEA strings"
"Uke Logic would be a good bet:

Does anyone have experience with setting up a super tenor for "low-G GCEA/Key of C" tuning?
I've used the Oasis on a baritone ukulele which worked well. But, I'm concerned that they will not work with the super tenor as well. I'd rather have the super tenor sound more like a ukulele than a guitar.
thanks in advance!
