Description
The D’Addario LE032W Nickel Wound Loop End Single String is a dependable .032 gauge replacement for players of loop end instruments such as mandolin family variants, bouzouki and other folk instruments that use loop tailpieces. It is ideal for musicians who need a single, correctly gauged wound string to replace a break, rebalance a set, or fine tune the feel of their instrument. Whether you are a gigging player, a teacher keeping classroom instruments going, or a learner who wants a quick, cost effective fix, this string provides a straightforward, musical solution with the consistency you expect from D’Addario.
Built with a steel core and a nickel plated winding, the LE032W offers a smooth feel with a clear, balanced tone and strong tuning stability. The precision formed loop seats securely in traditional tailpieces and resists slippage under tension. Compared with basic Student 1 spares, this string delivers tighter manufacturing tolerances for more accurate intonation, a longer lasting lively tone, and a more even response across dynamic playing. The result is a reliable, musical upgrade that helps your instrument speak cleanly and confidently.
For tuition and school use in the UK, keeping the right single gauges to hand is invaluable. This .032 loop end is clearly labelled, easy to fit, and helps maintain instruments between full restrings, reducing downtime during lessons, rehearsals and exams. Buying a single string keeps costs sensible when only one course needs attention, and it is just as useful for home practice where a quick replacement keeps progress on track. Supplied individually, it is a practical, good value spare that supports regular practice, ensemble work and day to day classroom needs without fuss.
