Harp guitars

Post by blackalex1952 » Thu Jul 28, 2016 12:26 am

I found this maker in Switzerland. http://brunner-guitars.com/en/b-c-models/
There are some great shots on his website of the way he attaches removable necks and bridges, along with vids. Here is one https://youtu.be/sr8_0sdLPL8m:
Also: https://youtu.be/sr8_0sdLPL8
On his website there is a photo of an interesting neck profile jig on the workshop page.
His falcate bracing looks to me, like he might benefit from the Gore Gilet books re capping his braces.
The luthier also does some interesting training in India.
So many interesting luthiers in the world, and the web is streamlining the exchange of ideas IMOP. Exciting times we live in!
