Bass Gut Strings

 

These strings are made from sheep gut. They are rectified to bring them to a standard diameter. Because they are a natural material, they are sensitive to changes in humidity and temperature. The sound obtained with the gut string is very clear and full bodied, with good sustain and warm response.
