Hi cittern men, Thanks for all the guittar info. I have just taken apart and put back together my Preston/Thompsons guittar. The bars on the back were all totally unglued and rattling around inside. The barring on the top was quite interesting, I thought: two diagonal bars feathering to a point under the middle of the bridge. And no bars actually coming into contact with the bridge feet... Now I've got to learn how to play it. Is it possible to buy a set of strings for this instrument? Or can anyone suggest specific sizes and materials?
