Re: Real talk: Are the C strings in the J78 packs dead?
Not sure if this is strictly relevant, but I seem to recall (from an Artistworks video exchange) that Mike Marshall has been speaking to D'Addario about providing Mandocello C strings at a lighter gauge (.070 instead of .074). But whether that would address your issue I have no idea.
I am a total novice with the Mandocello, but the Newtone strings which came with my Hathway m'cello (26 inch scale) include .070 C strings which to my inexperienced ears sound pretty good and lively.
