Regular Sopran Ukulele Strings : Outstanding strings

11 years ago

I got my cheapo good looking LP style ukelele with default value strings and when I first played it I was kinda disappointed, specially with the intonation and the fact they were super dull and the tones died fast.

So, I changed the strings to these and here are my findings:

- They are VERY elastique, and ring in an excellent way. They take a lot of re tunning until they finally settle.

- They won't lose pitch anymore after they're settle.

- Somehow they wont change pitch as much when you push the string between the frets (specially on the lowest notes) I assume it has to do with the elasticity. This helps a lot keeping the intonation at bay therefore having clean chords.

- They sound brigther than the ones installed on the uke before. The sound also lasts longer (not a LOT, but definitely longer)

- They have a rubbery feeling on the fingers when you play, that helps a LOT with the sound I believe.

- Now my ukelele sounds much better overall.
