If I'm not mistaken, loading is essentially infusing, which would be
process similar to dyeing. Perhaps I'm mistaken.

In the sense that you might chemically alter gut to become
heavier, yes.
If I am not mistaken the 'loaded' strings are made by adding
metal filings
to the gut prior to the initial twisting of the gut ribbons.

Loading gut is adding physical mass by adding a substance denser than gut,
not chemically altering the gut itself.

There is no way to change the specific weight or mass of a gut
string by chemical means. If someone
were to claim that there are ways to chemically change the gut
to make it heavier, that would be classed

Damian,
No I think that what they called a dyeing process may have been a
form of loading, or a charging, process: incorporating oxides,
probably does load the material, even if the person dyeing the
leather does not think of it in that way, his intention may just be
to colour the leathe
Anthony, Are you suggesting that dyeing gut strings would somehow change their
mass?
I do not think that you can change the specific weight of gut by any chemical
means.

Unless I am mistaken in my interpretation, it does seem that this loading of
leather with oxides was a sub-part of t
nce to say the least.

Good point; I misread your first post.

The color of the string is a result of the processing of the casings making
gut strings. It is a consequence of the nature of the casings themselves,
the chemistry used, the Ph of the water etc. So finished strings can end up
being a rich brown color, a nearly white color, and anything in betwe

Maybe as
but seems, from
paintings and early instructions, to have been much more usual from the early
17thC when extra courses were being added to lutes.
