just put oliv D, G and C. What a sound!!!! In combination with a
chorda A. You have to tune a bit more, but you get such a quality of
sound. Fantastic!!

Re: oliv
Nice, aren't they? They do wear out pretty fast and keeping them
humid is a must. Are you familiar with the pulling/pushing method of
"fine tuning?"

Re: oliv
Olivs are quite a unique sound indeed - the 'break-in' time is
quite healthy, so expect to tune the Oliv strings many, many times
the first day or two.

Quickly - Todd, saw your name in the LA Times Calender section this
morning regarding the Vivaldi performance. Good show!

Re: Todd
Thank you for the post - I didn't know it was in the times as well.
I'm off to find the article on the web now. Let's hope it is good...

Hi Ruthann,
i am not famliar with this fine-tuning method.
Please explain. By the way the chorda A (pure gut) stays in tune
very well.

Re: oliv
Oh, you probably are, I just didn't say it very well.
If the
string is a little sharp, pull on it. If it's a little flat, press
on it above the nut. That's the gut "fine tuning" method.
