Dan is in the UK at the moment, but I am unaware of any stoppage of gut string making from his shop. He has 4 employees making gut strings, and one is my daughter. I am aware of no lay-off plans.
Dan does use beef gut for trebles, simply because they are better, stronger, longer lasting. ed At 03:09 AM 11/16/2011, Anthony Hind wrote: >Whether other European makers are going to follow Aquila, I don't know. > Hopefully, Dan Larson being outside the EU, will not be too effected. > Perhaps Ed can tell us.
