Lmicatalog87pdf.Pdf 1 The Catalog is Dead. Long Live the Catalog! Welcome! We hope you find Six years ago our catalog was half this size and we had no products listed on the web. this first all color Today, most of you order on the web, phoned orders rank a close second, and almost no edition of our one mails in an order form from the catalog. We did not make these changes, you did. catalog enticing and helpful. Whether in products, services, or procedures, we try to anticipate, not dictate, your choices. Given your trends, we even expect that someday we may print a catalog with no order form at all! Why print a catalog if there’s no order form? Catalogs are not just for ordering. Just as most of you do research on the web before phoning to place an order, and many of you call to discuss your purchase with a salesperson before ordering on the web, the catalog is a complementary source of information to help you explore and fulfill your lutherie needs so you can order intelligently. You can flip through the pages at random, hold 3 spots open simultaneously with your fingers, and use it in rooms where the phone and web are just not as comfortable! Times have changed and they continue to change quickly. So even as we improve and expand our catalog, we realize we are no longer a catalog company! This year, we waited for this catalog to announce our redesigned, vastly improved, yet $100 cheaper manual slotting system. But no more! This catalog is a snapshot in time of our products, prices, and services. From now on, the web will be our up to the minute official source of information. On the web you can (1) interact with our purchasing agent to learn which wood makes a good substitute for the wood a country suddenly stopped exporting, (2) you can redesign a guitar kit so that it matches your personal vision, and (3) you can click “new” to find our most recent products - like the manual slotting system on page 125 that really was new months ago when we started work on this revolutionary Gutenberg thing in your hands.

  • Three Millennia of Tonewood Knowledge in Chinese Guqin Tradition: Science, Culture, Value, and Relevance for Western Lutherie
    Savart Journal Article 1 Three millennia of tonewood knowledge in Chinese guqin tradition: science, culture, value, and relevance for Western lutherie WENJIE CAI1,2 AND HWAN-CHING TAI3 Abstract—The qin, also called guqin, is the most highly valued musical instrument in the culture of Chinese literati. Chinese people have been making guqin for over three thousand years, accumulating much lutherie knowledge under this uninterrupted tradition. In addition to being rare antiques and symbolic cultural objects, it is also widely believed that the sound of Chinese guqin improves gradually with age, maturing over hundreds of years. As such, the status and value of antique guqin in Chinese culture are comparable to those of antique Italian violins in Western culture. For guqin, the supposed acoustic improvement is generally attributed to the effects of wood aging. Ancient Chinese scholars have long discussed how and why aging improves the tone. When aged tonewood was not available, they resorted to various artificial means to accelerate wood aging, including chemical treatments. The cumulative experience of Chinese guqin makers represent a valuable source of tonewood knowledge, because they give us important clues on how to investigate long-term wood changes using modern research tools. In this review, we translated and annotated tonewood knowledge in ancient Chinese books, comparing them with conventional tonewood knowledge in Europe and recent scientific research. This retrospective analysis hopes to highlight the practical value of Chinese lutherie knowledge for 21st-century instrument makers. I. INTRODUCTION In Western musical tradition, the most valuable musical instruments belong to the violin family, especially antique instruments made in Cremona, Italy.
