Topic: Metal Strings
I know that it is not De Rigeur to fit metal strings but I have a spare uke and I thought that I'd try
There are lots of solid electric ukes out there so they clearly do work well
I got a set of metal strings from the net and found that the bottom (A) string was a lot finer than the top string and sounds a lot brighter as a consequence
It also seems to go out of tune up the neck when a C chord is truck
So, does anyone know what the RELATIVE THICKNESS of 4 the metal strings a uke should have
I do have a digital vernier gauge and could then measure guitar string thickness to enable the correct relative string sizes
Looking forward to hearing from someone out there that has been to this territory
