I was wondering what it'd be like to use the terz string set (tuned up to G) on my 7-string, and have a low A string (056W) as the 7th string. If you "think"...
Donn, Another tuning for your 10-string that you can consider is using a regular 6-string set for 6-1, and then 10-7 = f g C D (f & g are like on the 6th...
Hello Glen! Actually! .... Your low 'A' suggestion is not that far removed from what I'm already doing. Except seven strings would prove to be rather meager...
Here is that guitar prototype we saw a year or so ago -- at about 1/3 the price: <http://tinyurl.com/65mvn7> Stephen _________________________________ Stephen...
An interesting design but I wonder if it will sound like my Soloette - great for traveling but no substitute for a true acoustic instrument. This electric...
Hi Donn: I like the way you are thinking. A midi 10 would be very cool, as would a 10-String Soloette. In fact, if anyone here wants a 10-string Soloette, I'll...
Stephen, I would be interested but in a Yamaha 10 string Silent guitar. The Yamaha Silent (6 strings) costs a lot less than the Soloette and it has more...

The prices ranged from $1500-1900. I could build another guitar and sell it over and over as well! <LOL> Warm Regards, PERFECTO DE CASTRO 10 String Guitarist ...
When I hear of those who own many multiple guitars or keep buying and selling guitars. I can't help but wonder,,, if not for some if not all ,,, that they may...

Hi, I can give you my experience with gut strings: They are great on lutes, but only if you play without nails. The thinner gauge gut strings will not last...
http://www.juststrings.com/classicallabellaguitarsinglestrings.html I'm not familiar with La Bella diameters but they are sold singly here. They also sell...
Thanks for replying! The strings I was looking at are "silver-plated wound over gut"... Would the same characteristics you mention still apply? They ARE...
I received this note from John Doan in response to my reference to him in defense of our classical harp guitar definition. Stephen, you may be dissapointed. ...
Gentlemen, Awhile back I noticed a couple of minor/miner issues within this thread (most of which is included below). Rather than speak for John Doan (who is...
