## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between the J60 and EJ60 strings?  They seem the same based upon the description.**
A: The 'E' stands for 'Environment', any strings with this prefix should have no plastic packaging.

**Q: Can these strings be used in a tenor guitar?**
A: I do not see why not.  4 string tenor CGDA or if you like Irish tuning try the GDAE string both cheap enough to try them out. The 5 string sets will not be good

**Q: Are these for gdae banjo?**
A: Yes, indeed-O!  These are great strings (I prefer the medium weight).

**Q: Can these be used on a banjolele?**
A: I had to look it up. A banjolele is a ukulele with a banjo body. It uses normal ukulele strings (typically nylon), not steel banjo strings.   Aside from the fact that this set has 5 strings and a banjolele has only 4, I suspect the tension would be entirely wrong if you tried to use these strings on a banjolele.

    Cordes BandeJo
  
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in France on 28 April 2023*

Aficionados de la marque en guitare, ces cordes banjo font très bien leur job, et à priori solides quand on joue avec les onglets

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very good strings!
  

*by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on 27 September 2023*

I put these on my 1926 Paramount Aristocrat tenor banjo, which I tune in Irish Tenor tuning. These are a good balanced set of strings gauge wise - I experimented with changing the heaviest string to a lighter gauge but returned to the .036 gauge - I simply like the tone and balance of this set best. They seem long lasting, I haven't had any break and the tone life is good. These are my go-to strings on my tenor banjo.
