I can't recommend a supplier - I guess you are in the US.
But I would go for plain gut everytime.I think they sound better and
certinaly feel quite different from any nylon type strings.
And after all - they didn't have nylgut in the 17th century...

It makes me wonder why Sanz is so popular amongst modern guitarists.
Could it be that the modern guitarists who are creating the current popularity
(which is a good thing, mind you) are simply unaware of the sounds created
whilst playing the music on an instrument with re-entrant tuning?

Ha! I do.

There's a simple answer, Eugene: he wrote (or compiled) great tunes.

low octave strings or bordones on the fourth and fifth courses. He is one
of the very few baroque guitarists whose music does work on classical

Sure, Gary. I have no doubt that it can be ''most pleasant and musically
coherent'. The same could be said of Bach's violin or cello suites on
the modern guitar. But that's not the same as saying it is as good as.
Oddly, Bach's violin and cello music just doesn't sound musically
coherent on a baroq
Dear Monica;
In a recent exhange I pointed out that aside from the octaves on the
4th and 5th courses on a baroque guitar tuned to play Francisco
Guerau's music the tuning was identical to the first five strings on a
modern guitar and hardly reentrant. I'm sorry, I do not remember
Just so. As said, we need to be wary about making assumptions
