English spinet

A copy of Russell Hitchcock of collection of Edinburgh, this spinet is really a great instrument: small, light, manageable and with full sound. Built in accordance with the original model it has a wide extension of the keyboard, a double curve of the case and brass stringing, all which produce both a sweet and brilliant sound . Besides being an ideal instrument for personal study, it is greatly appreciated for accompanying small ensembles. It can be finished in one of two ways; with a simple painting on the case or modeled after the original with exposed wood.
