Ken, have you tried Damien Dlogolecki strings? I have a G and D on my bass right now because I'm doing some period playing, these strings are as good as it gets for an authentic baroque sound, they of course bow very nicely with a beautiful warm gut sound. Chi-Chi Nwanoku (Principal of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment) uses these strings...you should check out her website for sound clips...
