New HG wanna bee

[Jan]

OK, so I took an intro to the Hurdy Gurdy lesson and now I'm totally
hooked! I need a Hurdy Gurdy! I live in NH and so far haven't come
across a used one. Everything I have seen on the net is on the west
coast and I would prefer not to buy one without trying it and having
it checked out. I don't want to start with a beginner box, but want
an instrument with some aesthetic quality, that is user friendly. Any
suggestions? Thanks, Jan

Talk to Mel Dorries at Hurdygurdycrafters (google for his website)

He's not on the East Coast, but at least he's half way there in Michigan.

Good luck

P.S. Used gurdies many times are MORE expensive than new ones. Good gurdies age well and sometimes you have to pay a premium for getting a good one without having to stand in the waiting lines luthiers have, some of them extending over two years!
