Link to the new gut strings from Aquila Corde Armoniche:
their code is VN, and those I used in this video are gauges 116, 165, 220.
Basses are, as usual, Eliakim Boussoir’s gut core basses.
We will bring there the instrument I play in the video with its gorgeous baroque set up, and another one with a full modern setup, Thomastick+Warchal, hopefully equipped with original pegheds geared peg, for the maximum comfortable possible in tuning those steel first and second string.
If you find it hard planning an holiday to visit us in the Italian alps, maybe a weekend in London would suit you better?
Looking forward to meeting you there!
