what kind of strings and cable do the tribute have when oyou buy it new? What are some good strings and cable to buy when my tribute string & cables wear out?

They wear an in house custom pre-stretched set made from BCY 452X material. Extremely low creep , fast and quiet. I like the factory strings alot and when I have needed to replace a worn set I replace them with the same ones from Bowtech.
They really are a good set of strings.

Here's a link to BCY's website and the specs on 452X.
