Dumb question time:
I've noticed that Thomastik makes a flatwound bronze guitar string in various sizes. Would it be possible to use them on the mandolin? Or is it more likely that they are not designed to handle the tension required for tuning to pitch on a mando?
I love the feel of Thomastiks and like their sound well enough but I figured a bronze or P/B flatwound would be the best of both worlds as far as a combination of tone, feel & ease of playability.
Or maybe not.
