A guitarist friend of mine - not yet a member here - wants to get a lute and asked my advice. He would like to get from a maker in this country (U.S.). The only current maker whose instruments I have played and can absolutely recommend is Dan Larson, but I think his wait time is rather long right now. Others listed in the Lute Quarterly are Richard Fletcher, David Fitzpatrick and Ken Brodkey. Has anyone here experience with the instruments of any of these makers? -Edward
