Hi-Can anyone comment on the type of lutes Gerwig used? I seem to remember
hearing that he used some kind of 10 course in ren tuning even for the baroque
music.

I've never been able to get a decent sound out of a stump or a beer

Really? Doesn't copyright last 70 years after the death of the

I think this must be a minor repair. The decoration is a light

play any role.

For minor repairs I use 'white' glue. It's perfectly reversable in the
sense that the glued on bits tend to fall off again after some years.
For more serious things or larger bits that came off, I use hide/bone
glue (I have a few pearls I can dissolve in warm water, very
convenient). For serious da
