If that's really the case you should consult an instrument maker. Such buzzes are a clear symptom og a bar comming off (or, less likely, a bar with a split). Changes in humidity open or close the gap but the structual instability doesn't go away. At some point the bar might come off completely, and that makes repair more difficult (and probably more expesive) Cheers, Ralf Mattes > Monica > > > To get on or off this list see list information at > > http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html -- R.
