Stephen & Sandi also make excellent and very modestly priced student lutes. One of my students has an 8-course student lute by them, and indeed it is so much better than some of the higher priced 'top' lutes of lesser makers. It just looks very plain, but there's nothing wrong with that. My Nico van der Waals lutes look plain and don't tell me they're no good. ;-) David To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
