In my sole visit to Luthier's Collection, I was really impressed with the Brondel that I played, so yeah, I imagine that you've got to be pretty stoked about the incoming duo.

Your cup runneth over. And yes, I'm jealous!

He told me he tripped and stepped into both tops. Just needs some time and a bottle of wood glue to fix it up.

They’ll be good as new. They just have shoe shaped sound ports. I guess they could double as snowshoes but you live in Southern California.
