      I take it you’ve never been to a hunting camp…

        Hiya everyone, I hope everyone is well. I'm great--except the being older thing is going on with me, but otherwise fine. My kids are great one got out of Florida and moved to NYC like a bat out of hell as soon as she got her MBA (BM in piano performance on the underside) and we downsized to a smaller house but were not allowed to get rid of the piano so it sits taking up a good chunk of the room. My wife doesn't let me play when she's home (I seem to lack some basic capabilities that make my performances a less than pleasurable experience) so the piano's a giant bar cart, which is ok, too. The other kid is in Seattle after doing getting a degree in culinary arts and taking a two year cooking tour of Europe. I'm really interested in Late Baroque theorbo (I don't quite own one yet--it seems they aren't readily available, so I play as best I can on the guitar. [There's this thing where having a hot little number belting out Barbara Strozzi tunes might be nice to have too, but I'm probably not going to get one of those too soon :-(]. ) Otherwise, I'm kind of a happy boy these days.

        It's good to be back here. I miss you folks.

            Vintage from the 90's. It's a keeper though.

              A National is always a keeper. I thought it was older; a wood bodied Duolian if I recall.

              Eight years ago I managed to get hold of a brand new National Style 1 German silver Tricone at a liquidation/estate sale for about 50% of its actual value.

                  Having your kids do well is likely the greatest happiness one might have. Glad to hear that’s the case!

                    I'm really interested in Late Baroque theorbo….

                    Super cool instrument. I love their deep rich sound.
