I completely agree with all of you empowering the work made by Mimmo. It is absolutely clear that he is spending lots of time and efforts on CD basses, you only have to take a look at his facebook timeline, but it is also true that for him to be able to produce these strings is almost an obsession, a vital goal. I can say that nylgut strings are top seller in Cuerdas Pulsadas, from amateur to professional lutenists use these strings all around the world. And I am sure that CD basses are going to make a difference too, it's a matter of time. I am used to play with gimped gut and I think that CD basses are going to be the best replacement for them. Regards.

I know he is fundamentally someone who is addicted to the lute and I'm sure he would like to dedicate his efforts to serving us lutenists. Unfortunately he has to make a living, and providing a few lute players with historically-appropriate strings can only be a small part of his activity. I hope that the current difficulties can be overcome and we can have a reliable supply of usable strings. So well done Mimmo, and keep up the good work!
