Based off of years of building instruments and performing live, these string sets reflect Aaron’s ideas about tone, playability and durability.  Our mini five string banjo set uses a mix of fluorocarbon and silver wound silk strings. 

String gauges are as follows:

#1d: .0260
#2b: .0291
#3g: .028w
#4d: .033w
#5g: .0260

*** If you live in the UK or your country is a member of the EU, unfortunately we’re unable to ship to you from this site because of VAT tax restrictions. If you’d like to purchase strings, please send an email to info@thebeansprout.com, and then we’ll make a custom listing for you on our etsy site instead. Etsy collects and submits VAT on our behalf, so it makes it much easier for us. Thanks and sorry for the extra step ***
