I thought originally they were only for trebles, but on the Aquila site, wheras previously Mimmo suggested using Venice twines for Meanes as they are very supple, he now suggests unsplit gut for Meanes as well. He explains that the gut strings made out of strips show more impedance

I'll very much look forward to your findings about the new unsplit gut strings - I presume they're for trebles mainly... rgds Martyn On Monday, 16 December 2019, 13:49:57 GMT, Anthony Hind wrote: Yes I see what you mean, Martyn. It would be difficult to do that with a
