Best wishes,
Martin
P.S. Please let me know if you have any trouble with the new piece of the month and
archive - there have been a few problems already but none so far which I
on
this instrument? Some of them appear to be over-spuns. Would it be rude to
ask what the price on this Lute might be?
Vance Wood.

Most of us, most of the time, conveniently overlook the fact that Thomas

Please pardon my ignorance,
The thing that surprises me about this issue is that Vihuelaist that have
