D'Addario EJ87T Pro-Arté Titanium Ukulele Strings (.029-.029) Tenor
Ukulele strings can completely change the personality of an instrument. If your tenor uke is sounding a little too polite, the D'Addario EJ87T Pro-Arté Titanium Tenor Ukulele Strings are designed to bring out a brighter, clearer and more projecting voice without turning your lovely little four-string into something harsh or brittle.
Despite the name, these aren't tiny metal cables waiting to destroy your fingertips. D'Addario's Titanium monofilament material has a smooth feel while producing a distinctly modern response, with plenty of brightness and projection. Compared with warmer, more traditional nylon options, they're a cracking choice when you want chords to sparkle, individual notes to speak clearly and your tenor ukulele to hold its own when playing alongside other instruments.
The EJ87T set is specifically optimised for tenor ukuleles in standard GCEA tuning, with four tie-end strings measuring .029, .033, .041 and .029. That final .029 G string means this is the standard high-G/re-entrant configuration, preserving the familiar ukulele character rather than converting the instrument to a linear low-G setup.
They're particularly appealing for players who like a crisp, immediate response for rhythmic strumming, fingerstyle work and melodic playing. There's definition when you're picking individual notes, but enough body underneath to stop the larger tenor format losing its warmth altogether.
D'Addario designs, engineers and manufactures the EJ87T at its New York production facility in the USA, bringing the company's usual attention to consistency into a set that's wonderfully easy to experiment with. Changing strings is one of the cheapest ways of discovering that your ukulele had another sound hiding in it all along.
At Musicmaker, we're big believers in experimenting with strings before deciding an instrument needs changing. A fresh set of EJ87Ts can give a tenor uke a noticeably livelier, more articulate personality for considerably less money than accidentally coming home with another ukulele. Although we're obviously not here to discourage that either.
