Just curious ... what gauge string do you prefer on your Sullivan?

	jmoliver says: 2/13/2012 2:47:30 PM Thank you. I'm using the same strings you are. I may need to tighten my head up a bit. I got the banjo new in December and doesn't seem to have quiet the same projection it did when I got it.

	jmoliver says: 2/22/2012 7:09:27 AM I've pretty much settled on the J-61's. Thanks for the response, JMO
