I've been buying the medium set (10, 12, 14, 22, 10) from Stelling while they're still available.
Does anybody know who actually makes those strings for Stelling? I expect it's a rebrand of GHS, D'Addario, or somebody else.
Stelling is going to run out of supply eventually and I'd continue using the same strings if I could.
Been using the same ones forever. Just bought a couple sets. Been thinking of stocking up on them .
Looks Like you can still buy them on Stellings web page
stellingbanjo.com/parts-and-accessories/
7.00 single sets, 6-pack 38.00 12-pack 55.00.
I didn't go through the entire checkout process, but it did let me enter all my information.
Most people say they are made by GHS the PF150 set is the same gauges.

GHS PF145 "Medium Light" is 10-12-14-22-10 with stainless steel wound 4th.
PF150 is the same sizes with phosphor bronze 4th.
Might be worth trying both (or just the one wrapped the same as the Stellings).
You dont see many bluegrassers use that bronze 4th. Wonder what main reason for that

It is not surprising that GHS makes or made them. Either GHS or D'Addarrio make the lion's share of strings these days. I am skeptical about a number for string companies claims but if someone knows better I am open to learning more.
Remember that most of the witre is from Mapes and essentially the same.

That's correct, you can still buy them and that's what I've been doing. It makes sense that the PF150 set may be the same strings.
