Description
Description
D'Addario NBM1038 Nickel Bronze strings let your mandolin's organic acoustic voice ring clear. They pair nickel-plated phosphor bronze wrap wire with high-carbon NY Steel cores. You'll get crisp projection, focused mid-range punch, and complex overtones without harsh highs.
The light 10-38 gauge provides balanced, lower tension. That makes fast bluegrass chop chords and delicate Celtic runs comfortable on your fingers. Because string tension stays moderate, it's gentle on vintage tops and delicate neck joints. D'Addario's proprietary NY Steel core wire ensures high break strength and dependable tuning stability on stage. Universal loop ends fit all standard traditional stamped or modern cast tailpieces.
