bridge, makes playing more energy consuming than it should. Plus, the light wood and large soundbox makes it very loud, especially for metal-nylon strings, and that makes it very brassy and bad sounding. These problems have been more or less alleviated by using silk but as the length of the qin is long it means they have to be tensioned higher than normal and so they could be more likely to break. Overall, I didn't not know what to do with this qin. I can't use it as a spare qin for travelling etc as I can't used anything other than silk on it, nor do I think it is worth keeping as a silk stringed qin.

There is some actual silk is used in encasing, but not enough to classify it as 'metal-nylon-silk strings'. The 逸 gauge is very thick and meant to mimic the size and feel of normal silk strings.

There are new strings coming on the market every year, but I have only included strings which I have information on the gauges at hand, or if I have them myself to measure.

Sound is not as good as usual qins and depends on strings used as well.

This is currently the best brand of m-n strings available.

These were produced to remove the metallic sound of m-n strings. Unfortunately, the quality has slipped somewhat over the past few years. The gauges for the old and new sets that I have are all over the place so I've taken an average. Apparently, there is a thicker gauge available.

Uses a combination of different fibres in three gauges. Compared to other m-n strings, the gauges have a very narrow range but the differences in tension and volume are different due to the way each string gauge is made. Said to be one of the best on the market since they came out.

I eventually decided to give this qin away to a former student who was in need of a decent qin. Although I wanted to sell it, I don't feel it is worth much and people tend not to want to buy old instruments (unless they are antique) so passing it on was the most appropriate

This set of strings also includes an extra thinner string measuring 0.79. This might have been included so the player can shift the gauge style of the strings from thick to thin. They are very rough and sticky. The currently made ones are said to be better.
7612:
This is arguably the 'main line' out of the two branches that are still extant. This is due to the fact that the main transmitters are based permanently in the Shu region and therefore is closer to the original style and environment in which it developed.

These new type of strings are made like traditional silk but with a Tetron twisted core and nylon wrapping. They sound closer to and behave like silk strings, though their tension is very high like m-n, and they are more difficult to string than silk.

In 2018, a former student asked me if I would sell a spare qin to her. As this qin was a so-so instrument, I decided to part with it for £650 (roughly what I paid for plus all the new pegs, fittings and strings on top) and save up for a better
