Apropos of nothing, I used to run a ukulele mail list too. But it got pretty slow and I cosed it down. Now the uke action seems to be at http://www.fleamarketmusic.com/ I searched for vihuela there and did not come up with anything. There are hits for baroque and fleamarketmusic, so from this I can infer that the uke is closer to baroque guitar... Wayne To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
