Hi,
I recently got an 8-string 60's or 70's Japanese electric mandolin/mandola (Bruno Royal Artist). #It has a scale of around 15 7/8" and is currently strung for a mandolin tuning. #I would like to set it up as a mandola instead. #I tend to like heavy strings, so I was thinking .048, .034, .024, .012. #However, I noticed on previous threads that people recommend using lighter strings for an electric. #Any advice on what string weights work well on a solid-body mandola?
Thanks!
