## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these strings suitable for gdae tuning please?**
A: Yes anything that talks about Irish Tenor banjo is designed for gdae.  If you've got a short neck length banjo they may be a bit on the light side but I reckon at that price they are worth a try anyway

**Q: Help! complete novice, inherited a keech 4 string banjolele, broken strings, which set of strings do i need? thanks.**
A: Well,for tenor banjo, light strings range from 10-34,medium 13-35,heavy 17-45.I don't know the tuning for a banjolele,but if you go for a medium set you should be ok.Heavy strings might put too much strain on the neck, and if you are playing chords, thin one's won't sound so good.It'll be a bit of trial and error ,I'm afraid.You'll have to check the strings on it at the moment.Banjo strings all have loop ends for attachment to the tailpieces far as I'm aware.Older instruments you sometimes have to loop and knot them yourself, but you are on your own with that one I'm afraid!

**Q: This is the first time i have heard of an irish tenor banjo. i am going to try using these strings on my concert sized banjolele. will it work out?**
A: I couldn't really say. I use them on my tenor banjo. They are very good strings. Keep their bright sound longer than other makes ive tried. Good luck and l hope it works out if you decide to try them on your banjolele.

**Q: Will the strings fit a 22fret bango?**
A: I should think so.I would assume all these strings are a standard length.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ New strings
*by N***E on 15 March 2025*

Nice strings good quality and sound

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, but learn from my mistakes
*by S***N on 6 February 2020*

I've been using D'Addario guitar strings for years now, so it made sense to use them when restringing an Irish tenor banjo, that I bought s/h,and unseen.The person I bought it from had just used cut down ball end guitar strings on it,which I found strange, but I realised why, when it took me the best part of an hour to restring it, using proper loop end strings.Firstly,do them one at a time,or else the bridge will move.2.Slide the colour code paper off the thin end,and not the loop end.3.Try to bend the wound end of the string above the loop down,so that it is easier to hook it under the small teeth in the tailpiece.This is fiddly, and requires several minutes of swearing to get the job done.It may help to wind the string on the machine head first, hook it on, then wind on, and pray that it stays hooked on.4.Try to get it roughly in tune, and leave it for a while.5.Whatever you do,don't cut the strings, until you have them in tune.You may find the loop is not properly hooked on, as you increase the tension,so you may end up doing it all again.The strings sound fantastic, so worth it in the end.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product, not for me personally but,, would definitely recommend to other friends
*by D***  on 23 July 2020*
