Description
Gamut Academie strings are designed for Baroque instruments by those musicians playing historical performance practice at a=415, and are perfectly suitable for modern a=440 practice, but the result will be a little bit more tension at a=440.

These C-Alto Viol gauges assume a string length of 44cm.
We have bundled together the most popular kinds of C-Alto Viol beef serosa strings (48", 120cm) and offer them in a standard set for ease of ordering. The set consists of:
- c-1 - Treble Gut
- g-2 - Treble Gut
- d-3 - Lyon Gut
- B-4 - Pistoy Gut
- F-5 - Gut/Silverplate-Wound
- C-6 - Gut/Silverplate-Wound
The set comes with plain ends for the c-1, g-2, d-3, and B-4. The F-5 and C-6 come with a 3-D printed ball end by default, and there is an option to add ball ends to the other strings. Instructions on how to tie a string knot are on the back of each package.
Plain gut strings are available with a natural or varnish finish. Natural strings are hand-rubbed with a light oil. Varnished strings have three coats of finish before being hand polished with the oil. There is an additional charge for varnished strings.
