I've got two Cocobolo ukes. I was lucky enough to "win" the lottery for a beautiful tenor earlier this year, and then again a few months ago, for a custom 5-string tenor.
I really love the sound of both of them...but...it seems like the they have very high tension strings. The sound is beautiful and bright, but I have a hard time with high tension strings due to weak hands from nerve damage in a hangliding accident years ago. I just can't manage to play either for very long without a lot of pain.
I'm looking for some suggestions on strings that might have a similiar sound without being high tension. I was thinking of trying some of the low tension uke logic strings, but am open to other suggestions.
