Judy here; I live in Olympia, WA and some of you know me from Folklife and/or the OTW Music Festival.  I’m downsizing to one gurdy and selling my 1991 Michael Hubbert lute backed hurdy gurdy.  It’s a beautifully crafted instrument and a great performance instrument—it’s helped fuel a number of French Country Dances at Folklife in Seattle.  I recently updated the tuning system to Peghed tuners, installed by Alden Hackmann of Olympia Musical Instruments.  These turn easily by hand.

 

Included are a soft case, accessory pouch, one extra dog, two tangents, and one tangent blank.  The gurdy is set up in G/C.  I’m asking $5000 plus shipping.

 

Contact me at olympiajudy[AT]comcast.net for photos and to ask questions.  You’re welcome to get the info even if you aren’t in the market right now and just want to see it!

I just met another Hubbert Gurdy (belonging to Brian McCandless) and I can confirm that it is a first-class instrument - wish I had the funds available!

Good luck Judy!

I adore my flat back Hubbert and have only good things to say about it and all the Hubbert’s I’ve seen. If I had the money… 

Felicia.
