Post subject:  Lutherie Books for Sale

I received an email from the folks hosting a luthier show in North Carolina this summer. Apparently, one of the exhibitors is selling off a bunch of their lutherie books. I've often seen requests here for the American Lutherie Big Red Books and thought some of you might be interested in this stuff.

Hi Steve,
It's a show called Mountain Acoustics Luthier Invitational
https://www.mountainacoustics.com

I'm not going but was contacted by the folks running it, asking if I'd like to attend.

I've sent payment for

GAL Big Red Book vol 1 (1985-1987)
GAL Big Red Book vol 2 (88-90)
GAL Big Red Book vol 4 (94-96)
GAL Big Red Book vol 5 (97-99)

Sherry was wonderful to communicate with and quick to reply.

Now I 'm on the hunt for Big Red vol 3—someone beat me to it :)

I almost didn't make the post as I thought it might blur forum rules (the "Classifieds" and all that) -- But I'm glad I did as I haven't ever seen such an extensive list of lutherie books and figured some of you were bound to be interested/looking for some of them.

For the record, some of the best lutherie books I've ever read are my Trevor Gore books - expensive but very worthwhile. Do check them out if you get a chance?

Cheers,
Simon

Thank you Mr. Cat,
For posting the information on the book sale. I am happily reading a couple of books on pearl inlay, one on Torres and another on rehairing bows. Nice books at reasonable prices. Sherry was a pleasure to do business with.
