Bow Brand Gut
High quality Bow Brand gut strings for harps. Bow Brand have three stringing scales available, Pedal, Pedal Light and Lever Gut. In addition we supply the Bow Brand strings in other stringing scales.
Changing string guages will raise or lower the string tension - and overal can greatly increase the stress on a harp and these small changes are magnified by the number of strings.
When we send out the Bow Brand gut strings they will in packets by diameter - this hopefully helps harpists as some guages e.g. 0.64mm would be 1st Oct A Pedal, 1st G Pedal Light and 2nd D Lever Gut. Thinner guage strings are normally sent out with a thicker offcut. The string lengths are based on the Bow Brand Pedal Gut lengths (specifications; Top G to 4th F = 48" and 5th E to 5th F 60" long).
