Hi Folks,

I've finally managed to complete my pages with some instrument photos.
They're already out of date so I'll upgrade the quality and information
as things progress.

Alison,

Excellent! Thanks for the nice photos, and I'm sure we're all looking
forward to hearing what comes from them.

And thanks for the small humanoid for scale and smiles!

Cheers,
Jon

Alison!
Nice to see pictures as it definitely give more of a real sense of what one is up to.
Is there much volume ( i guess this also depends on the thickness of the string plus tension )
to the zithers and have you tried bowing them.

Both zithers project and sustain well. Possibly a property of the hardwood. They'd be easy to bow but
as the strings lie on the same plane you'd be unable to isolate individual courses. Perhaps in
another tuning if I wanted sustained hexads.

Kind Regards
