Geoff Wooff Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) Hello Christian, the word is not gauge but gauze ( with funny old fashioned Z with a tail)..... meaning a net type lining under the fretted ends to stop insects and other wrong things getting into the instrument.

I was taught to write like that only 60 years ago! Edited December 12, 2020 by Little John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
