I've certainly tried Master Class, Bernd, but I'm not sure about the 'double wound' part....interesting

Inevitably, I have! Have to say they didn't do anything for me. Rather less vibrant sounding compared to my normal "ordinary" Masterclass; not as pleasant feeling somehow and more expensive too. There - bet you thought you'd never hear me say anything like that about a Newtone product did you?!! YMMV though! Keith

Keith Being convinced by a range of products doesn't necessarily mean that one loses one's sense of objectivity, Keith Thanks a lot for your input. The double wounds are even more expensive over here (appx. 14 GBP) Maybe I'll give them a try, but probably not in the near future.

Well, just ordered some normal Masterclass and some doublewounds, and will probably try the new fancy Dan ones first. In fact, I'll put them on before the Halifax meet so as you can try them, Akquarius

In fact, I'll put them on before the Halifax meet oh, crap ... are we supposed to put on new strings for Halifax? Still, I suppose it gives me a target of at least once a year

This is the only time of year I change 'em. Same logic for having a bath...
