Dear gut users
I have just had a top string go after 13 weeks (from just before
Christmas) on my 60 cm 440Hz lute. It lasted a little more than 3
months (it broke today).
This was a Kathedrale by Nick Baldock. The string did not fray, it
just seemed a little thin this morning, otherwise it worked perfectly.
I know gut strings do last longer in winter than in summer, but I am
quite surprised, favourably.
