Here is a note from LSA Rental Traffic Manager James Louder on our rental program: Waiting is difficult when you really want to play the lute! The LSA Lute Rental Program was already in the throes of some badly needed reorganization when the pandemic came along. Who could have guessed that the lockdown would be followed by a 10-fold increase rental requests? And who could have guessed that the newest fantasy drama series, Witchers, would feature a character that plays the lute! To be perfectly honest, the wave of new applications blindsided us and Lute Rental Program got seriously snowed-under. As I said, we have reorganized the program, a task that is ongoing. Now, with our Administrator being more free to concentrate on renters' applications, and our new Traffic Manager keeping the lutes on the move, we're getting things back on track. They are working overtime to process as many rentals as they can. If you are still waiting, know that we have not abandoned you! If you have any immediate questions or concerns about your rental application, please don't hesitate to contact Fiona Thistle Rental Manager [1]lsaluteren...@gmail.com James Louder Rental Traffic Manager [2]lsatrafficmana...@gmail.com Cathy Liddell LSA President lutesocietyamericapresident#gmail.com
Would any kind soul within the orbit of Nashville TN have a renaissance lute they'd be willing to loan or rent to a student? There's a really motivated newcomer who's been learning on a capoed guitar who's just itching to get her hands on an actual lute. She's been waiting on the LSA rental program for months already and it looks like the backlog won't clear anytime soon. Message me privately if you can help out.
