Banjola and Dojo Custom Gauge Banjo Strings - Also for Open E and F Tunings
Custom Gauge Heavier Banjo Strings for Banjola/Dojo
Also Ideal for Lower Open E and Open F Banjo Tuning
These custom-gauge slightly heavier strings work great for bringing out the warm tones of a Banjola or Dojo.
The Gold Tone Banjola, Dojo and other wood or resophonic banjo alternatives sound better with slightly heavier strings. It puts more tension the bridge bringing out more volume and deeper tone.
These custom gauge heavier strings also are ideal for tuning a 5-string banjo lower to Open E or Open F tuning. In order to get the rich mellow sound by tuning your banjo lower to open E or F you need heavier gauge strings. Otherwise the strings will be loose and sloppy with the less tension needed for the lower open tunings.
The Banjola and Dojo also sound great in Open E or F tuning. With these custom gauge strings you can go back and forth if you wanted between standard open G and the lower open E or open F tuning.

Open E is: 5th-E 4th-B 3rd-E 2nd-G# 1st-B
