Hi Anthony,
I think the sound is very close, it is difficult
for me to tell the difference. If there is any
difference in sound, I think the beef gut might
be a little louder, but that is subjective.

There has been discussion from time to time
suggesting that beef gut might sound brighter.
Can you confirm that even for trebles there is little or no difference?
Is the "intuneness" also about the same?
Regards
Anthony

Objet : [LUTE] Re: Gut string prices.
Very old news, but of corse, Dan lives just one block from me, so I
often hear interesting tidbits about the business of gut.
Your Pistoy is1.84? Child's play, as the Pitoy for my 11-th course
on my 11-course lute is a 2.02. Great sting, I may add!
Lately, out of not purely economical reasons, I have been using beef
gut. I cannot tell the difference in sound and feel from sheep gut,
but they are cheaper, and last a lot longer.
My 2 hank's worth!
