Description
D'addario Flatwound Mandolin Strings
D'addario EFT74 Flatwound Mandolin Strings are a Flat Wound Mandolin String. The wound strings in this set are made of phosphor bronze that gives the string a warm bright tone. After manufacture, however, the strings are grounded to leave the surface semi-flat. The advantage of these semi flat strings are that finger noise is reduced and a smooth feel is left for the player to concentrate on the instrument rather than fighting against the string. You'll also get that warm mellow tone known from Flatwound strings.
D'addario EFW74 Mandolin Strings are made with a complex combination of interlocking underwindings on a hex core, this provides a foundation for a delicate outer flat (ribbon) stainless steel winding. This unique design allows the strings to vibrate freely, creating a true, clear sound and an ultra-smooth feel. Created for jazz, classical, and folk players, they deliver unparalleled comfort for playing closed position fingerings and along the fretboard.

Mandolin...
My first time to try D,Addario flat top strings .I find them to be the best strings I have used on mandolin lovely tone ,mellow but still loud enough.Hopefully will last longer as well but if not I would still buy them again for their tone and they stay in tune better too

D'Addario FT 74's- My Favourite Mando Str.
They give me more tone, smoother playability, and hardly any 'Swishy' string noise as you move about the Fretboard. This is particularly of benefit Recording. They add a warmth to the tone of the Instrument that other Mandolin Strings haven't got, stay well in tune, hold their tone well over many. many hours and days of playing. FT 74's are well worth the extra 'few Bob' that they cost. By the way "Strings.ie" provide a great 24 hr postal Service, my first time using them, and I will be using them in the Future, Gay Brazel

Mellow tone strings
The flat-tops produce a mellower sound than the conventional round strings and this I find is more suited to blending in with and complimenting the other instruments in a group. This particular string seems to have a longer useful life than the round-wound strings I've used.
