Thomas, I am not in the market as I'm broke and building my own lute from a combination of Bob Lundberg's book and David van E.'s course. But I have to congratulate you, or Gerd, for including the lovely picture of Bob with his lute. He died long before I became involved with the lute, but I felt I knew him from his book (as put together post mortem by his friend). That picture shows a man I think I would have liked to have known. If none of you agree then let this be his memorial, and I think I'll print that picture of a man I never knew.

The instrument was built in 1986 but never played due to an accident of the hand of the owner. He now decided to sell it. Price negotiable basis 6500 Euro. Pictures of the instrument can be seen on http://www.gmelin-verlag.de/Lundberg/Bilder.htm Please don't ask me about the owner or the instrument. I don't know neither of them. Rather contact the owner Gerd E.Gmelin, email:[EMAIL PROTECTED], phone number: ++49 (0)8152 90 99 762 Best wishes Thomas the original mail: ich besitze eine wunderschöne 8-chörige Renaissance-Laute von Robert Lundberg (gestorben 2001), Baujahr 1986. Das Instrument ist in makellosem Zustand, da ich es nie gespielt habe (Handverletzung in 1983). Nun muss ich es aufgrund meiner ernsten gesundheitlichen Probleme verkaufen. Der Verhandlungspreis ist 6.500,00 Euro. Ich habe damals das Instrument über meinen ehemaligen Lehrer Prof. Dieter Kirsch gekauft, der mit Bob Lundberg befreundet war. Ich hoffe, Sie können mir helfen. Danke für Ihre Bemühungen. Mit freundlichen Grüßen Ihr Gerd E. Gmelin (ehem. Mitglied "Würzburger Gitarrentrio") Kontakt: 08152-9099762 Bilder vom Instrument: http://www.gmelin-verlag.de/Lundberg/Bilder.htm To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
