the all bowed psaltery network
Hello
Hello there! I have never been away, Neither informatics nor English are my stong point. I found a neighbour that speaks English and is helping me out. Over the next weeks I will try to record something on one of the psalteries I have in making right now so everyone of you will get an idea of what the sound is like.
Furthermore any questions you may have, feel free to ask; I will be happy to answer all of them.
All the best from La Rectoria in Sant Sebastia de Montmajor, Catalonia, Spain.

Hello,
I have some questions for you:
What sizes of psaltery do you make / sell? (e.g. tenor, alto, etc.)Can you make a psaltery with a tripod screw already fitted?
Can you make one with an amplification jack socket already fitted?
I see at artesanum.com that you are selling psalteries: what is included in the price?Can you supply a hard case for the psaltery?
Thanks, -- Steve
