I know 19th-c. guitar activity on this list has been sparse in recent years. Still . . .
I have a ca. 1850 Legnani-model guitar by Gebrüder Placht. A friend who uses Bow Brand "natural gut" harp string trebles and gave me a set to try. I've just strung the instrument, tuned it up at A = 430, and am pleased thus far. The strings are highly polished and remarkable transparent. Do any of you happen to have any experience with this line of strings in a fretted-neck context? Best, Eugene To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
