Well, apparently I need to exercise my carpal tunnel ridden hands..so here's my 2 cents worth. I think the "antiques roadshow" is an excellent analogy. This "acquired" patina they speak of doesn't come from years of neglect and abuse...watching said item disintegrate before one's...

The set is indeed Tony's beloved set. As his friends are well aware, life has been having it's way with the T-man.

Hiya! Just a "brief" post to let you all know I am indeed still alive....I can tell I'm alive because my joints hurt so blasted much! I have been planning on sending an email out to all customers and friends, but everytime I get inside from the ground zero I'm too tired and sore to do much...

...eh..you mean soundly stoned right?

I've got a trininity college zouk FS. Perfect shape, hard case, straight neck, truss rod, etc etc.

PM or email me!

...a reed isn't going to resolve the tuning issue for PJ's Kiernan chanter. The C hole is going to have to be tuned physically.

..Uilleam..did I miss something ??
"Davey your new B chanter is very good I think ye should work on it to your hearts content at home...its a breeze. "

..umm...well..seeing as I have sold a B chanter to no one as of yet, could you possibly explain this comment??

I'm entirely in agreement with Becky...I find that after playing my C sets that my concert pitch playing is greatly improved. At least my perception has always been that going from an hour or so of playing a C set seems to improve the over quality of the sound, ornamentation and feeling of being in ...

ExCUSE me Josephus, but I do BEG to differ! ....as anyone can tell... http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y36/bullterrier/maddavidcane.jpg ..........I am most assuredly INSIDE the box... ..em..and apprently mad as a hatter....perchance that fake ivoroidlike ball did more damage than I'm willing to admit.

...sorry, I'd have to disagree about caseine....it looks nothing like real ivory and it's just as brittle as the casp polyyster. The stiped grain effect actually looks kinda creepy to my eyes
