So, I took of my Gamuts last week for an experiment that didn’t really work, and realised while putting them back on that they are pretty worn and might need to go into the spares bag. I checked out the set I have online and it comes in at over £700 all told, in part due to them being made to order, in part due to customs etc (none of the UK stockists have had any for several months). So I thought I’ll get some Lenzners from Thomann - not my fave guts but still pretty decent - but was gobsmacked to see that even they’re coming in at close to £500 now, the last time I bought a set they were £200 and it doesn’t seem all that long ago, at the time IIRC they were cheaper than some of the steel/hybrid strings, now a whole lot more expensive. Is there a global gut shortage or something, or is this just how it is now?
