Long-lasting and even tension, these Medium strings are what we set up our mandolins with before they leave the workshop. We use the medium gauge set on every non-octave, standard mandolin except the Calhoun.

Find our light-tension set recommendation for all Standard Mandolins (non-Octave) here as well.
