Re: student wants a mandocello...under $1000...suggestions?
[QUOTE=Martin Jonas I have Thomastik mandocello strings on mine, which work fine. The C course isn't particularly strong because of the fairly short scale, but it functions just fine. Good option at that price.

Martin, where oh where do you source Thomastik mandocello strings? I live in UK (Scotland) and haven’t found anywhere online that even lists them (I assume it is the 1804 set I need, but not even TI’s own catalogue shows them). I have a Paul Hathway Mandocello and would love to try TI strings on it. Also, I do wonder whether the TI set would be suitable as my MC has a very long scale length of 660cm. Any pointers gratefully received. Nick
