Jun Tian Fang launched their own guqin silk strings

JunTianFang just launched their own "signature" version of guqin silk strings, in collaboration with 丸三桥本 Marusan Hashimoto, one of the most established and skillful guqin silk string makers on the planet.

Jun Tian Fang's signature silk strings come in 3 gauges. They are heavy, medium, and light gauge respectively.  Details can be perused at http://www.juntianfang.com/jtf/full?type=627&ty=qin (sorry, in Mandarin only) That's great news! ^_^

Wider availability of guqin silk strings and more choices for guqin aficionados is always good news.

This may mean that JunTianFang might start to pay more attention toward making guqins that sound best with silk strings. Good news indeed! 

This may be a small step. However, this is still very significant, because JunTianFang might be able to establish itself as the "go to" brand if someone wants to buy guqins that come strung with silk strings and are optimized for silk strings.
