At McNeela Instruments, we not only have a wide variety of banjos for sale, but we also offer the best strings for your instrument. Available in light and medium gauge, our strings are always ready to play.
We have all kinds of banjo strings for sale, for example:
- For 4-string banjos, we offer loop end strings and ball end strings from the renowned Clareen brand—one of the best banjo brands in Ireland. These strings guarantee you a great tone on your Irish tenor banjo.
- For 5-string banjos, we offer sets of Elixir strings, a brand well known for their excellent guitar strings. Their steel banjo string series is designed specifically for 5-string banjos, made from a combination of plain steel, nickel-wrapped, and polyweb. These strings are built to last and feel smooth to the touch, enhancing your playing experience.
How often should banjo strings be changed?
Banjo strings should be changed every 3 to 5 months, depending on how frequently the instrument is played.
- If you play your banjo regularly, we recommend changing the strings every 3 to 5 months.
- If you play less often, you can wait up to 6 months before changing them.
Taking care of your banjo strings, just like with any other stringed instrument, is essential for maintaining both sound quality and the overall health of your banjo.
