thanks for sharing the link, Rob, that would make for an interesting afternoon, to check some of these out in person.
your videos made and web-site made me aware of gut strings, I am ready to give them a go.
thanks.

Kind of hoping there was a Stradivarius or Guadagnini archtop in the lot.

Fascinating trip into the past. The older shapes appear strange to my modern eyes, yet must have held beauty for their makers. My loss, I am sure.u

Put THAT in your pipe and smoke it Mr. Joe Bonamassa!

I dig the Panormo. Big fan of his work.

I can’t tell if the Obbo has 6 single strings or 6 courses.

Beautiful Rob. Makes me wish I hadn’t neglected my right hand technique when I picked up the plectrum.

Here's a video I made of a copy of an early 6c Spanish guitar which I bought from this collection...and sold a few weeks later. It was an interesting project.
