Monel 13's, beat the snot out of it (it's "Play Along with Freddie Green" time
) daily for the next 3-4 months to loosen things up - IME archtops take longer to break in initially, and continue to break in over a far longer period (don't forget that the life of orchestral strings is measured in
centuries) - and you should have a real sweetie there...
