Description
If you’re the type who swaps mandolin strings the second that sparkle fades, EXP74CM is worth keeping in the case pocket. D’Addario built this custom medium set by pulling the sweet spot from their EXP74 and EXP75 gauges, landing on a combo that stays comfortable under the fingers while still pushing enough volume to cut through a jam circle.
The phosphor bronze winding gives you that classic warm-meets-bright mandolin voice — round in the low end, chimey on top — and it’s the kind of tone that makes a dead set feel painfully obvious by comparison. D’Addario’s NY High Carbon Steel cores (hexagonal, break-resistant) sit under a micro-thin coating, so you’re not trading feel for lifespan. These are designed to hold onto that fresh-string clarity roughly 4x longer than an uncoated set, without going dull or plasticky on your fingers.
