@Asgath you right, steel strings are not used original. The teacher of the workshop prefered steel stings becouse the sound.

[andylowings]

if the teacher of the workshiop "preferred the [incorrect] sound of wire strings" then surely it is only a modernised impression of a Germanic lyre?

Why would someone `prefer` something wrong?
