Early Music Instruments

[jviss]

Anyone else interested in or playing early music instruments? I'm finally recommissioning my Renaissance lute, 7 course. I never played it, though I played classical guitar. Looking forward to this, waiting for my new string set and gut for frets to arrive.

I enjoy making and playing Native American style flutes. easy to take lake sailing with me as I always anchor out in a cove somewhere where the acoustics are good

Yale has a great museum full of early musical instruments on Hillhouse Avenue, next to my engineering lab. A curator gave us a great tour some years back. You would really enjoy it, I’m sure.

Nice. Are those yours? I have a few guitars, including a nice MIM Strat, a Rickenbacker 360-12, and about four or five acoustics, both classical and steel strung.

Yikes! That's crazy. If you "collect," sure. If you want to make music, totally silly. A well made, well set-up Mexican strat is as good as a strat gets.

I agree.
