Hi all!
What string gauge would be reccomended for a four string mandocasterish Fender?
Any thoughts would be welcome.

Roel:
On your side of the "pond," it might be a bit difficult, but if you have access to electric guitar singles, my experimentation has led me to the following gauges on my Mandobird:
.009 plain
.013 plain
.022 wound
.038 wound
If you're interested in the above in a flatwound (D'addario Chrome) they can be purchased here:

US Global Priority postage to the Netherlands is an additional $5.00 US. Not cheap, but it might solve a problem. Otherwise, if you have access to your own supply of single electric guitar, you can deviate to your own gauge preference.
You might want to go heavier if you want a stiffer feel.
I use .010, .014, .024 and .034 on my Fender 4 string.
