Anyone know the brightest string for a weissenborn? The is 80/20 bronze brass and all different configurations. Any help is appreciated.

I prefer phosphor bronze - generally D'Addario but I would not say they sound any better than anyone else's. But they are nice and bright, as long as they are relatively new. What I have been mostly using is an ordinary phosphor bronze set of 13-56 D'Addario's, but I ditch the 13 and replace it with a 15. (I mostly use the low D tuning). I think it was Kevin Brown who suggested that to me. That is a little lighter than some people might use - I have also used a 16 on top.
