Strings
I've been using Elixir Polyweb strings for the longest time on my 5-string banjos. They're the best strings, I've tried so far, but my stockpile is running dangerously low, they've stopped manufacturing them and my banjo is in dire need of a fresh set of strings. Meaning that after this upcoming string change I have to find another brand.
Any recommendations?
I usually keep them on for a while, because I like the sound of the strings after they get "worn in", so preferably something durable - I have no issue with paying a premium, as long as it makes sense.
I've been using Light Gauge 09's and plan to keep doing so. I've previously played with John Pearse, Rotosound and Aquilla strings. I''ll be playing mostly Scruggs/Three Finger stuff on said strings.
Thanks in advance :)!
