No Problem, Antonio. Actually, I guess I wasn't clear about the Santalices article and what the connection is to the hole. I mentioned the reason as connected to the polemic regarding the "camps" of zanfona players, and basically Julio's article mentions only one point in the article: it is that the instrument with the hole was the model or template (i.e. "patrón") for the instruments produced in the Lugo workshops that were influenced by that very instrument. So, the theory goes, the instrument was recreated--large size, side hole--and all.
However, to counter my own argument in this case, I'm trying to remember if any of the other models I've seen from the peninsula that are unrelated to the Santalices instrument by "lineage" have this same hole. If anyone recalls this as the case, give a shout... Ate breve, Vlad On 6 Dec 2011, at 09:50, Antonio wrote: > Paulo, Thanks for the explanation about why "s" use is more correct > than "z".
