fairly common..
About every two or three months someone will alert the harp mailing list to
another fraudulent eBay listing. Sometimes the listing will use the same
picture as an earlier fraudulent listing, either because it's
I don't know anything about this gurdy sale, but there is a fairly common harp
scam on eBay where the seller posts a picture that is either from a dealer or
other source or a previous (sometimes legit) eBay harp sale. Sometimes the
scammer hijacks an eBay seller ID from a legitimate party who

How do you get X-rays?
Try a museum. Some have x-ray equipment or access to it. When I lived in
Pensacola, Florida I worked as a volunteer on some finds dredged up from a ship

Huh? No, they are not the perfect school instrument, and they are not easier to

Ken,
What I've done for a couple of my larger harps is get a soft carrying case
and build a wooden shipping case with plenty of padding and insulation, into
which the soft-cased harp fits. So far, so good.
Do you think your hg and its soft case might fit under a seat or even

As long as we're on Breton music, does anyone have a transcription of Bale Kamp
Fouesnant? Is it in Toniou Breizh-Izel? I don't have this tome -- any

Thanks.
