I've purchased a few vintage recorders recently, and I'm following the practice of playing them in a little at a time over the first few weeks. Should I be using bore oil or something else as well during this time?

Did you make a decision/purchase yet?

I was actually thinking of something that will hold them horizontally...you are right though about Google images. On my way to look!

By a lucky turn of the radio knob, My Dad stumbled on some live irish music on the local station, and lo and behold...it's Lunasa and they are playing in Seattle tomorrow night! I am so jazzed that I didn't miss them. I had no idea they were in town! Had to come blather on about it here because my h...

I went into the salon for brown to cover my greys and my faded out blonde ombre from the summer, and came out with copper and faded pistachio green. This color math does not compute. :devil: :evil: :swear: Getting it fixed in the morning... Last time I went in for light brown and came out with canar...

Adding that I have decided I need that low G to have a tuning slide...
