I think Mimmo Peruffo may not reply because he may not want to
appear to be advertising his wares on this list. It is a difficult
situation for string makers and lute makers whenever they
communicate, it could be considered that indirectly they are trying
to sell their wares.

Not against markers, just don't like the appearance. On my 72 cm. 8

very discreet little white dot at the seventh, on the neck near the

I don't think the sound of carbon is that great even when treated
with a bit of sanding, but I use them when I play under high
intensity spotlights, which is I'm afraid where most of the concerts
are these dayslights and A/C.
There is nothing as good as gut, especially for the ornaments.

Why would you want a thinner Pistoy? If you want that, it would be best,
in my opinion, to also lower the octave tension play overall with light
tension.
In my experience, to merely put on a smaller diameter Pistoy, or other
plain gut, would not sound any brighter.

Actually, I also wonder whether the arguments for low tension
stringing (Satoh) are not similar to those in favour of loaded
strings (MP). Both argue in relation to small historic lute holes.
The main difference is that MP argues also from the colour of the
strings in paintings.

Maybe it help to open some new excange of ideas...

Interesting article and I'm very much interested in the new production of the

It would be better, if Mimmo Peruffo would answer this, and perhaps
he will.
However, I heard them and saw them on Mimmo Peruffo's bass lute,
through Skype, and as far as I could hear and see in such a context
they did seem good.
I have an M-Audio Transit plus JBL on Tour speakers
Dear All
After reading Mimmo Peruffo's interesting article, I find that it
explains an improvement, I obtained by changing my stringing, in an
experiment I described at http://tinyurl.com/2husza.

my experiment, but I do
