Baritone 5-string sets
The baritone 5-string mandolin is increasing in popularity, thanks to players like Michael Kang. I'm happy to fill the small but growing need for baritone strings. These are suitable for GDAEB or FCGDA tuning on a scale length of approximately 19–20 inches. (If you want 5-string or 8-string standard mandolin sets, or a mandocello or octave mandolin sets, I sell those, too.) Here are the details:

*The Light set contains the same gauges specified by Jonathan Mann, the leading active maker of 5-string baritones.
The B and E strings are plain steel; the G, D, and A strings are roundwound with nickel steel. Sets are available with either loop-end or ball-end strings. You will automatically get ball-end strings unless you specify loop-end. Also be sure to specify the gauge you want.
PRICE:: $5 a set, plus shipping.

If you want to calculate the string tension you'll get when you put these strings on your mandolin, use this handy calculation tool. Along with your payment, please include your name, address (P.O. boxes OK), and e-mail address, and specify loop-end or ball-end.
