Doh! I did reply but sent it to the original sender instead of well you know the rest. I saw a distinct Hedworth look in the chanter but note it's brass fittings. He, I think, used NS (he did on mine) and there's more ivory on this one. I always thought of Bill's as very neat and slim so maybe a follower. The case looks too new for Bill as well. Colin Hill.

I pretty sure this isn't Bill Hedworth's work. I don't see his distinctive rolled (crimped) line that he used to anchor the metalwork to the wood, and the keys are also of a style different that what I'm use to seeing in his work. --Mike -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
