I'm sure everyone will be horrified, but I use Ominflex 25lb test nylon
fishing line (from WalMart: about 2 or 3 dollars for a lifetime supply : )
for the G (1st) string on my 8-string guitar...it works great. I use the
20lb test for the chanterelle of my 8c Renaissance lute (600mm). It works
great as well. I have found plenty of inexpensive replacements for other
strings too, among fishing lines and guitar strings if you do a little
calculating and choose conservatively.

Subject: [LUTE] Chanterelle
Dear all,
I ´m looking to string my 7c renaissance lute, string length 60cm
(a=415) again. In this moment I use nylgut and pyramid wound strings.
Only the chanterelle is nylon while the nylgut string was broken.
I considder to use carbon for the chanterelle, does anybody know if is
this a good alternative.
I hope jou can give me a advise what to do.
Thanks in advance,
Wim Loos
