Dear Christopher: I currently am using twisted brass strings from Bruce Brook. They are working quite well and sound good, and I've had them on my bandora for quite some time without breakage. Take a look at this Web site. Cheers, Jim

I just received this email today. Today being Janurary 20th! Even the Post Offices don't take this long to send a message! Brad Christopher Davies <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: hello all, can anyone advise me regarding best choice for the lower courses strings for a bandora with mensure of 600/630. I'm ok with the upper 4 (brass to twisted brass ranging from .14 thou to 22.5 thou), and the 5th course works the .32 thou twisted brass is a little stiff and awkward. Not sure what to do for the 6th and 7th courses. Any suggestions, even in the realm of historical conjecture, for strings (overwound?). Any specific brands, types, guage suggestions would be appreciated. thanks christopher To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals?
