During the Soggy Bottom Boys' performance near the end, the bassist can clearly be shown playing an all metal set of strings. Metal strings for an upright bass were not available until the '60s. The correct material would be gut (more commonly known as catgut) which is brown in color and slightly translucent. Gut strings are very important to the sound of traditional bluegrass and country music.
