Hello Daniel, Before you make a choice, please look at Jaap Mulder's
website at www.jaap-mulder.nl. He makes an outstanding H.G. and his
prices are not too high. You can also listen to a sample of his H.G.
being played.
Best

I am about to purchase my first Hurdy Gurdy and am considering my
options. I
want a good quality instrument and I am willing to pay a reasonable price
for it but don't want to spend a fortune if I can avoid it. I have
purused
the various sites online (Olympic, Chris Eaton, etc.) and then ran
accross George Leverett (Altarwind Music,
aroundthehearth.com<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>).
I have exchanged a few emails with him and find him to be very quick to
respond, pleasant, and helpful. His instruments are also significantly
less
expensive than most of the others ($1300) and there is not a long wait.
I am a neophite and, lacking a chance to compare instruments "in person"
I'm
basically at the mercy of strangers.
Has anyone here seen and played one of Mr. Leverett's instruments?
Any thoughts on these intruments and/or other recommendations would be
greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Daniel
