- Light gauge strings are under less tension, requiring less pressing and force to play. They also have a brighter, clearer sound — especially in the higher frequencies.
- Medium gauge strings require a bit more effort to get the correct sound, which can be beneficial for those who naturally play with more force. Medium gauge strings lend themselves to a more robust, louder sound with emphasis in the mid and lower ranges.
- Plectrum strings are designed to fit four-string plectrum banjos and are designed for superior tone and playing experience.
- Tenor strings are another four-string set that emphasize the unique sound and higher-pitched range of the tenor banjo.
