Hi Alain: I think this would be a useful subject to approach. My only problem is that those of us that are too cheap or poor to be able to afford Gut, or Nylgut and are still use plain old nylon with over-spun bases seem to be left from all equations I have heard thus far. Forgive me for using the word "we" in case I am the only one still doing this, but I assume I am not.
