All Ko'olau 'Alohi (Hawaiian for brilliance, pronouced A-lo-hee) are crafted from a dense monofilament material that has an attractive, translucent purple hue. They have a polished, smooth feel analogous to nylon, but with a slightly brighter tone and increased projection. For our string packaging we use "Eco-Friendly" tree-free paper.
The best thing to do is try a number of different strings and see which one sounds best on your ukulele. If you have a number of ukes you may find you prefer different brands or variations of strings because each ukulele reacts differently to the same strings. The only draw back is these strings take a while to stretch out and stay in tune. But it’s worth it!
Why bother changing strings that aren’t broken? Because old strings usually get bad intonation!
