I REPEAT. There are no VIRUS or WORMS !!
Personally I've never been a "collector" of cassettes, long plays or compact disc because at the end I've no time to listen to them how I would like, with attention and more times (because I think that the first listening might lead to mistake). Or because I prefer to spend my money in other things. I don't know. However in the photos above I've thought to let see you some of my first LPs that I love a lot, also because I think (probably in error) that the analogic system of recording is better that digital that sometimes "closes" the sound. But now this is no important!!

In many years of experience I have had to deal with so many models of strings of various brands. It is not always easy to provide its opinion as a string needs at least a couple of weeks to provide the maximum benefits deel.
I am not a technician in this area but I trust blindly in my ears and feel that gives me the bow. However, in my tests I always need a skilled person to assess even after what happens when the sound vibrates in the 'air.
So along with my history teacher, we have tested the Bel Canto produced by Thomastik. Forums in the world, in which often I participate, they have talked extensively and say in a very positive manner. My intent was to see whether these words correspond to the truth.
I must say just one thing out first.
The Thomastik has created some excellent strings especially in the light jazz (though I use to mix the Dominant set), but there was always some criticism with regard to the sound quality with the
'bow, very powerful but not very responsive to bow, and with a "Scratchin '" fairly clear.
Well, with the Thomastik Bel Canto, I believe, has solved all problems.
I do not want to write so much but the first thing visible is the gauge quite small compared to the other strings (I used the medium).
But the most impressive thing was the immediate responsiveness of the strings under the bow. A sound very sweet, well you say "sweet", as powerful as usual, but the noise of the string is
virtually nonexistent. Already the first evidence that quality of the string in his sound has made us think that it was an other brand. Instead they were just the Bel Canto.
