Hi everybody, I'm going to Vienna today, I will stay for almost a week. Any suggestions what to look for guitarwise (or otherwise for that matter, I'm going with a group of architect colleagues so we got that part covered pretty well I think). Home of Johann Stauffer, where Christian Frederick Martin worked, fun museums, instument shops, luthiers, all that. Thanks!

Arnt,

See if you can arrange a tour of the Bosendorfer piano factory. They do some amazinginly beautiful work there. It is a small operation. IIRC they make approx. 200 instruments per year. For perpective, Steinway makes aprox 5000.

Bosendorfer Piano

Regards,
Chris
