Subject: RE: Titanium Strings - Guitar/Lute/Dulcimer/
Richard..
That was a hell of a heap of theory mate....!!!
From my point of wiew, I'll try to respond to your suggestions..
1st - My guitar does not sound quieter. If anything a tad louder and for longer..... My guitars a Lowden 032.
2nd - My 'top' feels alive and , if sound is different, then for me its better...louder and more sustain.
3rd - Too theoretical, therefore for me, not relevant.I have a split saddle and experience no intonation probs.
4th - My strings are Rohrtech med tension. whether that conforms to your conception of medium, I cant say and, to be fair, I dont use alt tunings so I cant comment on that one...
5th - You got some bloody queer fantasies!!(HEE-HEE!)
I re-iterate..Mine have been hard gigged for 10weeks and show absolutely no sign of deterioration whatsoever...!!! And ,no I dont work for Rohrtech!!!
All I can say is ..get some, try em and report back when youve worn em out (2005??).
Interesting discussion here....
Regards to all....Spot
