John: Play nice or you'll get a reputation like me.

Let meadd some more information that might 'stir the pot'.
1. Serving added to keep the string from hitting your clothing or armmay protect the string while ignoring the real problem of too long a draw length or very poor form.
2. Some custom strings leave a lot to be desired. I've had some that have incorrectly terminated serving, incorrectly 'placed' serving, and incorrect lengths. And this is from some of the best known string makers out there.A serving has to be long enough to accomodate a kisser and equally long enough on the downside for proper termination and balance.
3. String loops seem to be such easy items to install. We have, however, seen such aplethora of bad efforts that all I do is smile anymore when customers complain about their problems with loops. Properinstallation technique coupled with proper tools (custom made) and a good materialmakes for happy customers. I've taught this several times in my seminars.

John/Bucknasty makes some good strings with good serving/technique.
