Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
D'Addario NBM1140 is an uncoated medium mandolin string set, supplied in 11-40 gauges. Nickel-plated phosphor bronze is wrapped around a high-carbon NY steel core to support clarity, resonance, projection, balance, and harmonically rich overtones. The set is intended to reveal the individual tonal character of a mandolin rather than mask it, while its construction is also described as delivering strong resistance to breakage. Choose it when 11-40 is the medium gauge range you need.
Strong match
Who this is for
