| These sounded okay on my banjo. The Elixir strings were a little pricey but sounded better. |

| D'Addario is a pretty reliable name for guitar strings, so I guess I don't see any reason why that should be different for banjo strings. I bought a few sets of these for a beginner-level banjo of mine, and they sound fine, and have a good feel too. Prices for guitar and banjo strings are low enough that one could splurge and buy some nice ones if you really wanted, but unless you're playing shows I don't see any reason why these strings wouldn't be more than sufficient. I bought some Martin brand banjo strings a while ago and I really don't feel or hear much difference between them and these. |
