Thank you for the suggestion Arto.
Unfortunately i cannot do it
I already image how confuse the thing will be with the customers.
This mean the eford to mannage twice products and honestly I do not
like to add cofusion in the factory and with customers already stressed

Dear Mimmo,
if you decide to make the loaded nylgut strings (CD) less elastic, I
hope (and wish and urge ;-) ) that you keep also the original elastic
version in your repertoire! They work exceptionally well on my Harz
arclute, great stuff.
And big thanks for your invaluable work!

Thanks for the clarification Mimmo.
Unfortunately I'm playing in a concert on Saturday. The mandolin
meeting looks very interesting and I'd have liked to have attended that
too!

Thanks Martyn,
I mean more predominant fundamental and less sustain, more percussive .
Bacon is interesting here,
By the way, I am leaving Italy to,London royal,college .,there is a meeting
about mandolin this Saturday
Any chance to,meet,you?

Well, seeing this post I have the idea to switch to these stiffer ones. at
the end of the day they are closer to those loaded strings made of gut.
I will do some samples in advance.

Presumably FB was talking of dark diapasons and not bass courses
diapasons with their octaves? Modern wire wounds are very bright and
there is little need for strong octaves. Personally when using Venice
gut loaded that were quite flexible and dark, I moved to higher tension

Dear Mimmo,
Thank you for your continuing efforts in manufacturing these strings.
I agree with much of what has been said: - especially with Martin
Shepherd about the unfortunate influence rose pluckers have had on
stringing often leading to high tensions of overwound strings in the
No problem at all, they could be darker (even better!). Anyway it’s quite a
good idea IMHO. If some like overwounds they can always use just…ocerwounds;) I
really can’t see any point in imitating overwounds.
Please let us know if you make a new stiffer batch.

Mimmo again;
the Gualtier tbel hs a diffrent interpretation that those relate to gauges
or gut ribbons.
I will do a article in matter in the next future.
I am going to believe that maybe is better to switch to another elastomer
whose elasticity is less. I have have already done some tests and I
Well, Tony Bailes mailed me that:
Writing in 1629 Francis Bacon stresses that low strings should produce a
bass sound: “for we see, that in one of the lower strings of a lute, there
soundeth not the sound of the treble, nor any mixt sound , but onely the
sound of the base.”

Dear Mimmo,
Firstly I’d like to congratulate you for inventing a new type of bass strings,
as those of us who would like to use plastic equivalent of gut had very little
choice until now. Your CD strings sound nice with quite solid fundamental. The
only problem that I found disturbing is their
Dear All,
If we're really interested in how lutes might have been strung
historically, I think it's important to take the historical evidence
(very little of it, I know) as a starting point, rather than the habits
of modern players using modern strings.
We have a lot of iconographic evidence
Dear Mimmo,
Thank you for this information. I'm glad all the gauges of the new loaded
nylgut strings will be available again soon.
Your suggestion to compensate for the extra amplitude by using higher tension
makes sense but will you be making gauges above 2.2 for the 13th course of a
baroque lu
