D'AddarioBanjo Strings (XTJ0920)

Sounds great and last long. Love em

great quality and made my old banjo sound new again.

Worked great . I love them

I usually use Elixir coated strings, but I thought I'd give these a shot since they're normally less expensive. I play outdoors often, so I really prefer coated strings since they resist the deadening that often happens with humidity and don't pick up the dirt as easily. These strings seem strong enough, but they lack some of the "snap" I'm used to. They basically sound like a well-broken-in string from the moment you put them on. The packaging can be a pro, or a con depending on what you expect. They are all in a sealed plastic package, not individual paper wrappers like many other strings. They use color-coded "flags" (for lack of a better term) that make it somewhat difficult to determine which string is which gauge. There's a chart on the package telling you which color denotes which gauge, but that's not as easy as just reading an envelope. Overall, depending on the price, or if you prefer the all-in-one packaging, these are good strings and a valid alternative to Elixir strings.

Very nice and inexpensive strings. They have a great tone for clawhammer banjo. Highly recommend.

The strings feel nice, arrived in one piece. I'll be switching to a light gauge because these are not quite as bright and are a little drowned out by the rhythm guitar in my 2 piece.If the banjo was playing alone or with something brighter (mandolin? Violin?) These would be perfect.

Every maker has their own definition of light gauge. These medium/ light strings are lighter than Deering lights. Banjos like light strings, and these fit the bill.

Always consistent quality from D’addario, great easy shipping and payment. Will order again
