I've always managed to order directly from Savarez.A In Canada there
are no representatives for Savarez lute strings, just guitar, so
they've always accepted to sell directly to me.

The Savarez web site is rather vague about the density of these
strings (the KF "multi-coated" strings from .95mm onwards) and even
implies that the density is about the same as gut. A But my
experience has been that they are more dense than gut, a good
approximation being to use a diameter about 10% less than you would
use with gut. A I have found they work quite well - on my 6c lute at
the moment I have a 5th course of .95mm and a 6th of 1.25mm (both
octaved).

Is there a Savarez dealer in the USA? I am looking to try the
Alliance KF strings on a renaissance lute (unless members of this
newsgroup warn me not to..) And how do I calculate thicknesses to
order?Thanks, trj
