Hi, I bought a cheap mandolin to have fun with, I am actually a violinist. I have never restrung an instrument with gears and did a really bad job on my e strings, basically bent them at one end. So now I have two G naturals, the 4th fret will not play a G# no matter finger placement. I googled this but only received guitar fret issues. Also, I used D'Addario strings, I wouldnt use DAddario on my violin. Not sure if quality matters.
And lastly, my two local music shops DONT carry mandolin strings, I dont want to drive far, and had to order more. Thought I could get an opinion or two here, rather than wait around for the new strings and get more frustrated. Help!
