<p>Ah, Rob, I assumed the set would be the same sans endorsement. ;-) They were excellent and lasted for a very long time. Fortunately (for me), I cannot hear any difference between gut and nylgut. To me, gut has a different 'feel', less slippery under the picking fingers...but not so much that I can't live without it.</p>

If that was the Rob MacKillop set, they no longer sell them. I think they only bought in a few sets, and there wasn't much profit in them. It was a surprise to me that they put my name on them. Never asked them to. However, I thought they were good strings.

<p>Clifford Essex Music. @ £17 plus £3 shipping ($32.39), they're a tad dear for me. However, I plan to order some next time I place an order with CE.</p>

<p>Well go figure...all the gut strings I've ever had have had a golden or tan tint to them. Where were your clear colored guts from?</p>

<p>I just mounted a set of the "New Nylguts" on my CE Special. They look just like the old ones...frankly, I cannot tell any difference. I prefer the pure white...</p>
<p>The guts I had on it last year looked like clear nylon. If you didn't look at it very closely, you would have sworn I had a set of Chris Sands heavies on it.</p>

<p>I heard a rumor that Nylguts were going to be a more natural color like ivory rather than their current dead white.</p>
<p>I can't figure out why they were dead white to begin with... lol</p>
