GHS Banjo 5 String Stainless Steel Medium, .011 - .024, PF180star rating 5Big KeithMarch 12, 2010All stainless strings have now been fitted to my banjo, After trying lots of different weights and makes of strings this proved to be the ideal combination. It made the tone more bluegrass as opposed to jazz/celtic, but head tigtness made up for some of this, and the action is now perfect, but different string weights will have different effects on diferent banjos. The faster rebound on these strings made playing faster and more accurate. Now fitted, previously suspected I wouldn't even need or want to try others. 'Ernie ball' 'earthwood' are the only ones that come close, but still they're no match for these. If your outside USA non tarnished ones are hard to find, and postage is prohibitive. I sent mine to a US friend, who then sent them on, and it worked out less than half the cost on postage.
