I bought a Tahitian uke that was strung with fishing line,it gave it more of a sitar-ish sound.
What exactly are Seaguars?
Hmmm. Interesting. What other sorts of materials do you use? And if it's good enough for a uke, wouldn't it work equally well on a fishing reel?... blending fluorocarbon and other materials to get the right tension and feel of each set.
You cheap SOB's can string your uke's with fishing line.....I, on the other hand will be stringing my fishing reel with martins
i wonder if there is a place where they have the diameters listed and we could closely match up the strings?
Went to a local hardware shop that also sells fishing gear to look for line today. Nada I could use. No Seguars at all, but a few other brands. Saw a couple of 40-lb test, and one 50 but nothing stronger. Most everything was 20 or under, and a lot at 10 lb or less. I guess when you live beside fresh water, and the majority of fish are trout, bass and a few pickerel, you don't get a lot of demand for 60-80lb test line. Have to look into ordering online instead.
How did this story end?
