Dear all, noboby has told us yet by which EU-regulation
(kind of [e.g. directive?], year, number, date of publication, article no.) the production of gut strings should be prohibited. By now we only have the personal statement of Mimmo Perufo that "strict European legislation" (?) forbids the production and use of beef gut. Beeing a lawyer (and lutenist) I would appreciate more precise information to verify the statement. Henner -- Dr. Henner Kahlert In der Tasch 2a D 76227 Karlsruhe (Durlach) Tel. 0721-403353 Tel.
