Hi. I'm new here great forum.
I have a few questions if ok.
1. Why are the two high strings in flatwound nickel string sets usually plain steel? And the rest nickel? (Tuned C-G-D-A-E the A and E being Plain steel)
2. Does anyone see any issue with stting gauges .011, .018, .027, .039 and .050
Is the gap between .011 and .018 too much?
If so would .012, .016, .025, (.037 or .039) and .050 be a better mix?
3. Anyone know what gauges Tiny Moore used in 70s and 80s and what his mandolins he sold came with etc?
Many thanks and sorry if these questions already answered.
