Andrew Hartig Custom Strings for Period Wire-Strung Instruments

creating twisted strings originally grew from my own desire to experiment with better low-range strings on my own instruments. I discovered it takes hours of calculation and experimentation to understand the relationship between strand gauge, spread angle, and amount of necessary counterweight to create a consistent, accurate string of equivalent diameter to a specific gauge of monofilament string. As both a musician and instrument maker, I understand just how important strings are to both the feel and sound of an instrument. I bring this background in every consultation to find just the right strings for your instrument. Whether you are trying to find a set of strings for a new instrument or just change one or two for a better feel or sound, I can provide you with suitably matched strings when given the type and gauge of any other successful string on your instrument. I stand by all of my work for both quality and accuracy. I personally test all of the strings I make, and all strings are supplied in reusable tarnish-resisting bags to provide you with the best possible string in the best possible working condition.
