Thomastik SET CORDAS BANDOLA Prazision 174

FLAT WOUND - Strings are steel core, chrome wound, medium tension. Intended tuning is EADG (treble to bass). The strings are about 38.5" (97.8cm) long with 11.25" (28.6cm) of silk on the head stock end and 25.75" (65.4cm) of non-silked wire. Labelled as 45cm on the package. Packaging says "Mandola" which actually refers to a European mandola or tenor mandola or octave mandola, tuned like an octave mandolin. So if you have a long scale mandola (17"-18") and want to tune it like an octave mandolin, try these strings.
