List, Someone has said that the copper used by the Canadian string maker was not "electrical grade" copper but was somehow a purer form. Since I would assume that the weight of the copper is the same how could it make that much difference in the tone? Or, is it just attention to detail by the string maker. On a different note, I have one Kawai KG-8C that gets broken strings (top section) when you lower the tension, even the small amount of moving during regular tunings. Anyone heard of that?
