Re: 5 string e mando strings....
I’ve used emando.com and Martin had fine service. I have no idea where he sources strings. I’ve also bought individual D’Addario nickel guitar strings from a local guitar shop, choosing all of the individual gauges. Haven’t tried flat wounds yet.
I’ve found electric strings are much less sensitive to environmental changes.
