A word of caution to you, I was stringing my tenor this morning and I thought I'd try a set of Aquila strings based on a number of posts. There was a disclaimer in the packaging that said beware of sharp edges/ends. I didn't feel any but when I was putting the E string on it snapped and gauged the finish on my Kamaka. I've never had a string do that and man I'm just sick about it, so a word to the wise, be careful!
