A month ago or so I ordered some strings from Musicians Friend (both mandolin and guitar strings). I ordered some D'Addario J74s, which I've been using for a while. So last night I took out a set to change my mando strings and I noticed that the strings I had received were not the usual bronze wound strings I thought i was getting, but stainless steel wound. I ordered them inadvertently, and got two sets, not realizing they weren't bronze. I put them on, and they seem fine, but I'm just wondering if anyone here has used these, and what do you think of them? Do they last as long as bronze strings, sound as good for as long? Do they corrode faster? Just looking for some reviews; I have to say, I didn't know stainless steel strings existed!
thanks,
Jack
