that's good, but reading isn't going to do it. you need hands on experience with a lot of different rests to know what works best for you. i frikking hate when guys who have been reading up on string materials call me up to have a conversation with me about them and try to tell me something.

just yesterday this fool called me up and explained that after all his reading he'd figured out a little known industry secret - that D-75, the stuff that comes on hoyts (not fuse strings), is actually a good bit better than 8125, and it only costs a lot less because demand is creating the price difference. i told him he was an idiot - but he didn't listen.
