Actually, this instrument is in all gut, including the treble, and
the strings do not stick on the nut. I think he takes care in the
polishing of it.

It did not stick on the nut--I think he used a real nut, like a Brazil

I saw this lute in Dan Larson's shop yesterday. It is a very, very
nice Frei, and yes, the pegs, or kegs, or whatever you want to call
them, are very nice, very interesting. They are, as DT says, smooth
as butter, and they will never slip, as pegs do. They are plain, but

The ones Dan had were small and light.
He was saying 25-35 per peg, I think, in what used to be the dollar.
The taper would have to be similar, to fit the holes, but since the
"peg", or let's call it a "keg" , what the hay, doesn't rotate in the
pegbox holes it does not have to be exact.

That archlute has one of those Korg mics clipped on it, which you

It is the twin of mine, although it sounds a bit better than mine
and is happy with Sarge.

I don't have geared pegs on my cello, but know a cellist - and a violinist -
who does. They like them a lot. My questions would be:
1) How much would each peg for a lute cost?
2) Would they need to be fitted by a luthier, or could the player do it
him/herself?
3) Assuming a peg with gears wei
Thanks for the pictures, David!
Do I see a clip-on tuner on the extension in the "bfx11" photo?

At BFX 2010, I had the opportunity to play Dan Larson's Frey lute.
Well, first off, this was a really nice lute, and all gut strung with
some really cool strings.
This lute also had geared pegs, which look just like real pegs. I
mean, they are real pegs, not imaginary pegs, but hopefully you know
Hello all,

Hi all,
Would anyone be willing to send me a scan of the first two pages of
Corbetta's Sinfonia in C major (the one that starts with the 1950's doowop
progression) for guitar and continuo? I believe the piece begins on page 77,
but somehow I only have from 79 on.
