I also own a MTO A shape with oval sound hole.
As I prefer the sound of 80/20 bronze, what brand of strings do you recommand ? I now use 11/40 gauge |

Congratulations on the MTO. I love mine. I use Thomastik Infeld mediums on all 3 of my mandolins. They sound especially good on the oval. I know they are not for everyone and they are expensive if you don't like them. On the other hand for me they last about 8 months.
My Collings Family ---------------------------- 2004 MF and 2009 MT-Oval. 2006 C10 Maple Custom, 2008 AT-16 Archtop. Looking for 50s thru 70s 45 RPM records. |

Let the raging begin, I use Elixir's on both my Mandos. Med gauge on both oval and F hole.
They last forever and sound great to me, though many won't like them. Rick A few too many ! |

i have a set of curt mangan bluegrass strings on my mt2v......i am interested in seeing what they do on my mf5 oval......i'm just too lazy to restring it yet.
for those who have not tried these, they are different, and in a good way. GADZ-Ukes!!!! |

D'Addario EXP 74s. Give 'em a whirl. I was skeptical of coated strings , but these really changed my mind.
