Thank you give them 5 stars.
The set up on this banjo is pretty tight, and I have found the Elixir strings do well on this banjo...I also have a 36-38 model 11 conversion banjo which was set up by Harold Criscoe...It has a more loose set up, with more of a "ring" tone, and the Gibson ES strings work better on it...So, my appologies to the folks at Elixir***I just ordered two more sets of these boys for my ES Gibson....
