Monel Mandolin Custom Medium Loop-End
11.5-11.5-16-16-26-26-41-41
Monel (aka Nickel Bronze) has built in natural resistance to tarnish and corrosion yet it feels great to the touch and has its own unique tonal color. Monel is 67% pure nickel, 30% copper and about 3% of special sauce that makes it Monel. For lack of a better term, it sounds earthy. Great for blues and bluegrass. Monel is naturally resistant to salt water (sweat) yet feels real good.
These strings hold up better than any strings I have ever used. I tend to have sweaty hands that seem to corrode strings fairly quickly. Not these strings though. Not only are they durable, but the have a great warm tone that sounds excellent on my F5 mandolin. Always happy to support Curt Mangan.
Unlike any other string I have had on my San Juan Mandolin, these bring out the tone of the "WOOD" of the instrument. Power, dry clarity with balanced tone. I can really hear the quality and carve of the WOOD. Did I say you can hear "WOOD"? The strings are comfortable, Have pretty good longevity. I put a guitar set of Monels on my D-28, too, same result. Love these strings.
