BBC How it’s made: Gut Strings

Here is the video from the famous BBC serie “How it’s made” , recorded in April 2012 in Caldogno (Vicenza, Italy) at the Aquila strings factory.

We tried to prepare everything to show them the whole process, but they didn’t want to film the smelly initial part.

I’m the one who plays and who scrapes the guts with the copper thimble.
