Very nice - what a shame you don't still have it.
I have often wondered how keyed guitars works - a very odd idea really!

Hey Monica,
I thought you might enjoy this video since you're showing in the cetra (aka
English guittar). I did this the day I sent my little Preston to her new
owner, just to say goodbye and thanks.

By the way, I would love to play a keyed guittar, but I've never had my
hands on a working model...

Very nice too. I've always wanted to hear someone play one of those
things with a row of keys along the bridge which look like false teeth.
any volunteers?

Well it was worth the effort - I thought it was very attractive and a
welcome opportunity to hear an English guittar.

Here's a youtube video of Rob Mackillop. You can actually see him and the
(battered but fine-sounding) instrument:

It's interesting that Scottish tunes survive in plucked instrument
sources (guittar, lute, mandore) but - and I may be wrong here! - no
Irish nor Welsh.
(Well Parry of Ruabon did publish some Airs for the
guittar/guitar/cittern thing).
