Daddario EJ74

Great sounding strings

Bought these strings for my Harley Benton Mandolin, they made it feel ike a brand new instrument. 10/10 recommend these

Good mando strings

Good quality, durable strings with a nice bright sound.

Pro tip for anyone who's new to the loop end strings: while tightening a new string, really keep an eye on the loop end and make sure it doesn't snap off the hook during the process.

If you don't know, you'll thank me later.

If you know, well you know why it sucks :)

Best mandolin strings

This is probably the best mandolin string set out there!

Good strings

I got them to replace the strings that came with my hbma50E...made all the difference in the world can play it now...daddario strings are quality...you too should believe...again I like em

The Industry Standard for a reason

Well not much to say, these strings kick butt. Sound great for pretty much anything on any mandolin I've put them on.

Quality is top notch, sound is bright and rings beautifully. Nice balance across the strings.

Watch out if you have chronic acid hands though as if you are playing 2-3 hour gigs in the summer they will be dead after one or two shows. Fast fret will get you a third show with good tone (though less brilliant) then it's time to restring.

Great strings, if a bit pricey

So my mando luthier put these on my Weber Gallatin after setting it up and they do sound great. They've been on there for several months now. I use GHS fast fret before and after playing, which I believe has also contributed to their logevity.

They still play smooth, though the tone is of course completely dead. If I were to gig with the strings or record I would change them more often. If and when that becomes the case I will likely look for a cheaper alternative.

But for casual (what's casual? I play 1-2 hours a day) home use and with a little care they remain playable for quite a long time, surprisingly.

Now if only Harley Benton would start producing a cheaper coated alternative.....

The Quality you Expect from a Bestseller

Just as it says on the packaging, these string are warm, bright, and balanced. I got them to replace the stock strings on my mandolin and was surprised how much of a difference they seem to make in the overall tone quality of the instrument.

I think regardless of playing style these strings would be a good choice and it's the obvious choice of many other mando-players out there.

Great strings for any level player and a reasonable price. No complaints here.

Good hurdy gurdy sympathetic strings

I use these mandolin strings as hurdy gurdy sympathetic strings, usually 1/2 a set per instrument. They tune up nicely to C, G, D, A with about a 42cm string length. They take a few days to stretch out but then are very stable. The coating goes dull after a few months but for use as sympathetic strings, they continue sounding and working well for at least a year.

Good strings

When it comes to the mandolin, these strings are hard to beat

i love these strings really easy to play on a guitar with a nice action, they provide a really warm tone and will last a lot longer than other cheaper strings, never had any tuning problems either.
