D'AddarioEJ72 Light 14-49 Mandola Strings - Phosphor Bronze

Play and sound great on my mandolin

The choice of ball end strings is limited so these are excellent if you want long life and typical mandolin tone.

Despite the extra cost If you value your fingertips they are a good buy. Much more pleasant if you are playing in a long session. Good mellow tone and sustain and also quieter. Will buy again

The price was more expensive than some but I went for quality. I re-strung an acoustic mandolin and all went well until the last string snapped on tuning. On the basis that I’d installed seven strings up to that point without problems, I can’t think I’d done anything to cause the break…I was still in the ‘tuning up’ phase (as opposed to tuning down). I still have four stars as they sound very crisp and a good improvement on the originals. As a footnote Amazon gave me a full credit and I bought a ‘two for the price of one’ set from another company. I just used one string for the time being and it has the same tone as from the previous string. Sounds good now on any case.

These strings are excellent value for money and nuzzled easily on my new mandolin, ensuring that my quest to become the world's greatest mandolin player continues unhindered. I will probably never know the warmth of a woman's touch and die childless and alone.

great strings - they give my mandolin an appealing, woody tone, but would recommend bringing the high E strings up to pitch over half an hour or so to prevent snapping as reported by other reviewers.

I like these strings for guitar so assumed they would be nice on a mandolin.They are!

I should have checked the code on the D'Addario website, but EFW74s are stainless steel flatwounds, not phosphor bronze as this listing states.

These strings are awesome. Great sound. Love the light gauge, easier on the fingers. Will definitely buy more of these next time I need to restring my mandolin.
