Jeannie, The fellow I am writing for has found Danny to be rather abrupt and rude and he didn't want to ask another question unless he had to. He thinks GC's strings are superior to Mapes and quite a bit less expensive than Sandersons...I will tell him go ahead with the pattern over the dampers but to write that info on the pattern. Seems to me with samples and a pattern, this would be plenty of information for the string maker. I mentioned some time ago that GC told me they weren't taking new customers, so I continue to use Mapes...
