Maybe in the spring, back up in Northumberland. Thanks for asking

Gorgeous.

You may've heard of the Unthanks... check out what they've done with "Because he was a Bonnie Lad"-- it's also remarkable. Just search for it on youTube,

thanks for posting!

Great stuff there.. I vividly enjoy your videos and the sweet tone of that wonderfull instrument. I ordered the exact same model a couple of weeks ago and now i really cant wait to get my hands and my fingers engagede in musical univers of the cittern - did you get it with the pick-up? looking forward to more stuff

[forbesbell]

Thanks for your kind comments. Roger did fit the pickup for me. You might want to join this forum for all info on playing and making Citterns. Google the following to get there.

Good luck and I know you will enjoy the Fylde.

Thanks Mike.

I've been playing a lot recently with the Lovely KaT Eggleston and we may try and get these recorded. She plays fingerstyle celtic and is amazing to watch and listen to.

Thanks once again for your comments

All your playing is top rate - especially that right hand work!. Great songs. 2 days ago I didn't know what a cittern was or where Northumberland is located, but I sure do now. Look forward to your new videos.

Cheers, Mike
