Hi all: First of all, thanks for all the advice on finding a lute teacher.... I received so many helpful replies that I can't reply individually right now...but again much thanks and I am pursuing your advice.
Secondly: I don't have a lute, and am a senior living on social security, new lutes, and used lutes are expensive, thousands of dollars...... what is your advice on buying a lute for a newbie like me? My interests are renaissance and baroque music, and there are so many different types of lutes out there..... thanks again for your help and advice Nebraska Joe To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
