First of all I apologize for having sent my original email to the entire
list, and not to Alden and Cali directly. It would appear that the
unintentional result of my error has been informative discussion, which is
most welcome.
In answer to Seth's question: at-rest conditions for the Orca have been
optimal: cool stable basement environment (NOT dry, but not excessively damp
either). To be on the safe side I use one of those long guitar humidifiers
which I place next to the instrument in the bag (tip courtesy of Melissa the
Loud!)
My experience with the instrument has been FIRST RATE, and I would
absolutely recommend this model to others on account of its stability,
sound, and ease of playing.
Best wishes to all!

Subject: [HG] Bizarre Orca problem
Date: Tue, 08 May 2007 23:12:25 +0000
Dear Alden and Cali,
Very curious: my Orca (which I have raved about on the HG list) has somehow
very quietly developed a crack in the back panel: it goes along the joint
where two pieces are apparently glued together.
This instrument has never been dropped or even bumped: I've treated it like
a BABY and I have no idea how something like this could have developed. But
sure enough: I brought it out of its bag today to record, and the crack is
very obviously there. It must have occurred while inside the bag, which has
been sitting on the soft couch in my studio (free from harm).
What do you propose that I do? The recording sounded fine, but I am
concerned that things might start to fall off or something. Has this ever
happened with the Orca model before?
Please let me know -- meanwhile I am sending you all my best wishes, as
ever.
Sincerely,
Michael Laird
