I was just reading the post on fluoros vs. nylon and I have another twist on the question.
What strings do you use to drive heavier topped instruments?
In my case, I'm thinking about how to get the best sound I can from a cigar box uke. This might also apply to homemade ukes or other ukes with thicker (less resonant) soundboards.
Strings that come to mind are:
-- Aquila Super Nylguts
-- Aquila Reds
-- Martin Fluoros
-- Savarez Fluoros
-- D'Addario Nyltechs
-- Aquila Sugars (fingers-crossed on Mimmo's new formula)
Any thoughts?
