Christopher, I agree entirely with your coments. Classical guitars are very tense instruments, nails are required if you want to play with good volume. Btw they never fill a big hall (soundwise)... 2010/11/1 Christopher Wilke [1]chriswi...@yahoo.com There are a lot

I think John Williams never read anything about the history of his own instrument. Check at 1:38. Couldn't believe he said that, specially after watching those great videos by Jocelyn Nelson. [1]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_LNU1-s4BEfeature=related -- References 1.

This question must have been touched several times, but as I am rarely pleased with the string tension on my lute I'll raise it once more: Is it better to have the chanterelle at 36 N? the conversion is about 3.67 Kg. The problem is that nylgut gets thinner with age and this affects
