Default Mandolin strings

I fond that changing mandolin strings is no more difficult than changing open head stock guitar strings.
The trick is to change ONLY one string at a time. Doing that will not compromise the intonation, etc from the bridge moving.

Also, I own a Ron Cole RCF5 (awesome!!)
I put D'addario strings on and it sounded awful. Called Ron Cole and shared my disappointment with the D'addario's. He strongly suggested GLS strings.
Purchased them and put them on. W-O-W!!! What a difference!
YMMV

They are now my 'go to' strings.

IHMO
