My experienced (senior) brain is refusing to help me. So, I look to you. I have a 5 course mandola. C through A I Tune traditionally. The first or highest course I want to be able to switch between E and D. I am currently using light gauge mandola strings, the C being a .49. Scale is 17”. I have broken a .12, .11 and .09 tuning up to E which just doesn’t make sense to me because I easily go from .10 to .11.5 on my mandolin. Any idea what I can use on that 1st course to give me the E/D flexibility I’m looking for? My experienced brain thanks you.
