..Not to mention Brian May on It's Late (_News_of_the_World_,
Very nice!

Steve Hacket's recordings are 6 years earlier than It's Late, but I am sure
Mr Hacket was probably not the first to record this technique.

It's also common to put something on the ends of the boards (wax, shellac,
..) to seal the end grain and help keep the end from drying more quickly
than middle. Otherwise, the ends of the board shrink too rapidly, which
tends to cause checks.

Yes indeed. There's also a rule of thumb
Indeed. Wood that's dried too rapidly can behave very strangely and is often
unstable. I had some kiln-dried beech once that had been dried too quickly
and was extremely unstable. Not something you'd want to use for a lute neck,
to say the least.

Hi All,
Had to weigh in. To paraphrase the great Guido Sarduci, Wood is'a my beat.
I have had good results with kiln dried poplar for lute necks. It has proven
quite stable. The bias against kiln drying I think stems mostly from tone
woods. Most of the Pac NW tone wood cutters dry the splits
Nothing necessarily wrong with kiln-drying. I'm working with a nice slab of
kiln-dried red beech right now that's very stable. However, if the folks
running the kiln try to rush things, the wood can get pretty messed up, and
it's not always obvious until you do something like cut it.

The top of my chitarrino, made by lutenist Eero Palviainen, comes
from a house wall made in the 16th century - says Eero. Thus the wood
has aged a longish time outdoors. :-) And the sound of the instrument
is definitely best chitarrino sound I've ever met...
Aging wood outdoors seems to work...
I've heard of wood for instruments being deliberately soaked/immersed -
until it actually gets a bit moldy.
