Since the string length (vibrating length of the string measured from nut to bridge) of individual instruments differs, the string thicknesses should be chosen according to the string length.

We produce special pure gut A- and E-strings.
By combining the traditional rope production methods with string making techniques, we were able to create a significantly thickened string.
Our string is very flexible, produces an audibly clearer sound and reacts more quickly to the bow compared to a string that has been thickened less.
A-strings produced in this fashion perform well.
The pure gut E- string needs a more practiced hand and a curious mindset.

Wound strings are an important subject of research and testing. We are working on a viable solution.

Recommendation for playing at a frequency of A=415Hz. The following string set recommendations have the effect of equal tension on all strings.

Vibrating String Length 98-102 cm 103-105 cm 106-108 cm
G 235 220 215
D 315 295 265
A 420 395 355
E 560 530 475
