Gary75 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 My D6 has the original strings in it and I"m contemplating putting new strings in given they"ll be 45 years old. I"m seeing Ken Rich and Vintage Vibe offerings and wondered if any of you guys had opinions on what to get Also spotted Retro Linear doing stainless steel strings.

TommyRude Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 I'm getting an aural visual of those 45 yr old strings giving a gnarly crunchy sound Quote Some music I've recorded and played over the years with a few different bands Tommy Rude Soundcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doerfler Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 you can't go wrong with offerings from any of those companies. Your clavinet will sound "different" with new strings, no matter who you purchase them from. You will need new yarn also. VV has kits available, not sure about the other 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary75 Posted October 23, 2020 Author Share Posted October 23, 2020 I'm getting an aural visual of those 45 yr old strings giving a gnarly crunchy sound I"m also 45 years old and can vouch for the gnarly crunchy sounds you mention. Is there any reason to change out strings of that age? I assume, like guitar strings, no guitarist would use strings of that age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
