   You could try tying a leader to the peg box end and hope that as you
   bring it to pitch the leader ends up wrapped around the peg and the
   string makes it over the nut and reaches your pitch.

[LUTE] Re: Gut Diapasons >180cm

2019-02-10 Thread Sean Smith
   Edward: Check your string adjacent if possible and see how much stretch
   it actually uses. Roland's advice sounds plausible. At 72cm I have a
   little stretch (and less on the 60cm) but you should have ~3x as much
   at 180cm. That may be all you need.
   Although I don't have an extended neck, I do this all the time with gut
   strings. I've probably saved quite a few dollars over the years. For
   the top 3 courses, it's so gratifying to get two lengths from a 120cm
   string on a 60cm lute.
   It doesn't work quite as well for roped strings but there the secret is
   to not cut a too-long string but to wrap the remainder around the
   pegbox. Later, just reverse the string. (yes, I realize this isn't
   applicable in the giraffes's cases but I hope it is helpful to others)
