              My first Stwy was a 1913 model K also and I loved it. I always 
thought the bass had it except the single wrapped mono-chords. IMHO strings 
this short should be double wrapped for more flexability which gives an 
overall improvement in every area that means good tone.  The bichods usually 
have very good focus ,sustain and clarity. It's too bad that bass strings 
made today don't have a prayer of holding up as long as the ones made by 
those guys. There materials an possibly expertise was better then.
