"Take the octave string from 7, or go to your local fishing gear store and buy a spool of nylon/carbon/anything with more or les the correct diameter." The 7 octave wont reach G4, tried that. And there are no fishing stores here, so that's also not an option. The

12 gauge fluorocarbon fishing line is 0.33 mm and works ok for a top string - it's an ok top A4 on my 54.5mm Renaissance guitar at 440, a bit tight but will probably be usable as a G4 on a Renaissance lute. τούτο ηλεκτρονικόν ταχυδρομείον εκ είΦωνου εμεύ επέμφθη. Hæ litteræ

Time to put the bridge and nut under a microscope- well, just a good magnifying glass in a good light, & examine at all angles, cast shadows around - you are trying to find any and all imperfections, sharp edges or even hard angles and rough spots that can be smoothed down with very fine nail

I hadn't read this reply properly but the octave on the 7th course is going to be far too large a diameter to be used on the top course. If you have an octave on the 4th course, that would be OK. I don't mean to sound patronizing but it really is a good idea to have a stock of spare top

ok...after trying several different strings, taken from the 7 course and fret gut, I came to the conclusion that there's something wrong with the lute today. For some reason it refuses to reach G4 without snapping the strings. On Thu, Dec 24, 2015 at 11:29 AM, Omer Katzir

If you're lucky and the broken string is still long enough when it stretches to extend between the nut and the bridge, then you could try tying another string to it using a fisherman's knot so as to be able to wind it around the peg. Be careful to ease the knot over the nut so as

If you're playing on gut strings, be advised that gut shrinks when wet. This is one of the techniques used to set gut frets , i.e. wetting them before attaching them. Gary On 2015-12-23 18:47, LSA Lute Rental Program wrote: Every month I try to send all the renters of Lute Society of

Of course you shouldn't use the octave of the seventh. It could probably only be tuned to G3. An alternative is to tune it to G3 and play it like a theorbo with the top string down an octave. Op 24 dec 2015, om 12:43 heeft Omer Katzir het volgende geschreven: > ok...after trying several
