Didn't someone post his current number not too long ago when you last
posted about this? I'd search, but I am in the midst of migrating to a
new computer and can't search my old emails.
This is of concern to me too as I have an archlute of his that needs
repair. He said he would repair it for free, but a lot of good that
would do me if I don't get it back! Also, the cost of shipping is so
much that I have been thinking of alternatives (but not doing too much
about it, other than emailing the top lutenist here asking for
recommendations).
I think I mentioned that I had my Brazilian friend on Skype when I
last called Luciano and he told me the recording said that that number
was no longer in use. Right after posting that someone gave another
number, but I didn't call it. Do you have it?
Our community is too small to allow these things to be unresolved.
Surely someone can contact him.

He doesn't answer emails, phone calls, or (I'm thinking) smoke
signals.
I am out thousands of dollars. I can think of no remedy for me,
but I
will keep sounding these warnings to all and sundry: DON'T DO IT!!!
