My favorite strings are Chris Sands Mediums, I tune my banjo down to dADF#A, and they growl and rumble, especially when I do slides on my fretless. Any one else want to say what there favourites are and why?

The Nylgut strings are definately worth a go, not as much trouble as many people think, with the caveat that you are careful to rid your banjo of sharp edges like you find on cheap tailpieces etc. Thanks for the reply Frailblazer. All the best from Bill. :D
