Selected User Reviews For Martin Guitar Vega Banjo Strings V700, Light-Gauge Nickel-Wound Banjo Strings
These strings have a very light gauge and will brighten up your banjo's sound. Every time I use a heavier gauge string, such as a medium-gauge string, I'm disappointed. I think there's a wet towel hanging over the strings because they're so light. After a few days, I disconnected them and reconnected the Martin lights, and voila, my banjo sounded like sunshine once more. Try these if you're used to using mediums. You're unlikely to return to mediums in the future.
These strings have a nice sound to them. To my ears, they sound upbeat and joyful. I'm a newbie to the banjo, so I'm no expert on the instrument's strings. These, on the other hand, are the easiest to string and sound the most like a banjo.
Martin is one of the best string manufacturers, and I got them for a great price, and they sound fantastic on my banjo. Find out how to wind them around your pegs, as this not only makes for a nice installation, but it also prevents them from becoming loose. I was watching a good on-demand show when I came across this. To find out how, watch the video below.
Shipping was quick, and the product was simple to swap out.
I understand these are light strings, but they didn't feel right to me and sounded tinny to me. Although it is a matter of personal taste, I did not enjoy them.
Strings are very nice. Now all I need is for the banjo to stay in tune. 😂.
Every two weeks, I switch out the strings. After four weeks, these are the best-feeling and-sounding.
On the tenor, I've discovered a new favorite. I tried a few different brands, but the tone and playability of the low string (the G in GDAE tuning) were always a problem. These strings were extremely beneficial; however, it is now my responsibility.
