Dear lutenists, the difference of touch between those two approachs of stringing seems to be a tricky business! I had (still have!;-) problems after years of synthetics in starting with gut strings, but after getting some preliminary touch to gut strings, playing the synthetics with acceptable sound feels even more difficult than the move from synthetics to gut!
Any advice? Any advice other than "stay in gut/synthetics"? Arto PS A little similiar problem arises, when you switch between single string theorbo and double course lute... PS2 recent example tries of those two gut: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgPisQNbeZc synth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CwKBSjljnc To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
