Robby Faverey is an ace classical guitarist and baroque lute player with whom I have had the privilege to study. He is also playing South American folk instruments and old style gut strung banjo. He has also played the Sarod. He has made his own cello banjo's and enjoys playing the Bach cello suites on them. More recently he has turned his attention to the viol. Another multi-instrumentalist pur sang.
