You can find some cheap harps on ebay if you're worried about ruining a Special 20 or whatever. That's what I did. A handfull of Bluesbands with combined shipping was dirt cheap. I really didn't need more than a couple though, tweaking is that easy. Heck, I worked on one today with a screwdriver, f...

I have already answered Jim privately, but for the public record: I have a keyless Reviol (#34). It is my everyday flute, and as soon as I can tear myself away from it, I hope to send it back to its maker for keywork. Maybe after the summer season. Anyway, a fine flute with superb craftsmanship.

Augusta Mini-classes
Does anyone have an opinion on these? Are they a good use of time, or do they just interfere with practice and crack.
I would appreciate any insight from veteran workshoppers.
Thanks
Byron

Byron, it'll be good to meet you as well -- counting John I think there might be four of us in the state now. Whoo-hoo! I feel a boom coming on! Cathy, Yes, I agree. I've been meaning to PM you (If I may drag this off topic for a minute) about the Louisville Fest. Any news on that? I'm trying to li...

Nelson, Cathy means recording device (cassette, mini-disk, digital direct...). Apparently anything learned during the day is reluctant to be repeated that night, so the lessons are recorded. On my list of things to do before July is to learn my iHP-120 inside and out. As for point (1), although I ha...

Well, we're getting quite the contingent of Chiffers aren't we. I'm of two minds on having prior knowledge of the tunes. I also have Lesl's book and find it to be a great resource ( Thanks Lesl!!!), however I don't want to miss the opportunity to experience learning some tunes the old way...call and...

I'm not sure how directly this addresses your questions, but I play a Reviol in Honduran Rosewood which I find to be a great flute. On mine the varnish is very thin and has mostly worn away. Not that it really matters, but for the record I wish it didn't have the varnish. It gives a patchy appearanc...
