Unfortunately there have been serious issues with the new loaded nylgut strings.
Availability has been erratic ( I believe that there have only been two batches
so far, the second stiffer than the first) with promises of delivery of certain
references delayed by several months.

Hello all
the name of the Japanese brand is 'Seaguar' (made by Kureha) and they produce
lots of different carbon fishing line. I made real good experiences with their
'orange line' of Fluorocarbon line - this goes up to .91, but the thicker ones
(more than .52) are not easy to get in Europe
Just to clarify:
The Japanese fishing line, Savarez KF, and Kürschner "PVF" are all the
same material - PVDF (not "carbon" or "carbon fibre"), with a density
about 38% greater than gut. All have been available for many years.
The Savarez KF strings are monofilament up to .91mm then "multi-co

Thanks for the info Martin. I was particularly interested to learn that from
0.95 upwards Savarez strings are multi-coated. I at last understand why when I
cut a long PVDF in two to put on the fifth course of a lute, one of the
resulting strings was false going up the fingerboard but fine when

Dear All,
I heartily endorse all praise for Mimmo, who has done so much to help us
with stringing our lutes in a way which is closer to historical. I know
he is fundamentally someone who is addicted to the lute and I'm sure he
would like to dedicate his efforts to serving us lutenists.

I completely agree with all of you empowering the work made by Mimmo.
It is absolutely clear that he is spending lots of time and efforts on
CD basses, you only have to take a look at his facebook timeline, but
it is also true that for him to be able to produce these strings is
almos
I would just like to say that I have been critical of the past productions of
CD loaded nylgut strings firstly to warn other players who want to buy them
that all is not yet rosy and secondly in the hope that future productions will
be much better.
I think the biggest proof of my support of Mim

Strings- using real gut subjected to great research & creativity to
bring us lute strings- esp. those troublesome basses- that come closer
to a "real" thing!

Thanks Dan.
'The Lute in its historical reality' will be soon update; in fact, there are
some new things:
1) Lute chantarelles: I was able to do a few experimental lute 1st string
starting from a lamb- whole gut of 1to 3 months of life (see Attyanasius
Kirker, Rome 1650) . The samples were eve
