Nope, it's not HIP. Neither is playing with saxophone, actually ;-) But I want to play Muse. I want to play Telephone. And I want to do it on lute, not on electric guitar.
And occasionally, even in more conventional settings, a little amplification would be nice, as all these anecdotes about inaudible lute recitalists make clear. So, any advice about contact mikes welcomed.... P 2010/10/19 Sauvage Valery <[1]sauvag...@orange.fr> Is it an HIP position to play with amplification ? Not sure it is coherent with what was said about gut strings... If you want to search for the lost sound... gut strings, no amps. Same conditions as yesteryears... No ?

I remember that David T and others made some recommendations a couple of years ago about contact mikes suitable for lutes. Any fresh updates? I fear my lute and saxophone combo won't ever get started without a little electronic help.
