Did it look like that at the timeGood replies. I got this from my kids 9 years ago on my 60th birthday. I think I will add a brace right where the top split and try to glue it all together, nothing to lose. It may hold together for ten minutes, then make its way into the fireplace.
On the Internet you can rehearse your ad-libs.Loving these replies! Wish I was that quick with a good wisecrack!
Funny--I off to South America for up to two months starting in late June. Only plan is to start the trip in Colombia with a friend. After that, a lot of going with the flow. Cochabamba is actually on the list of I make it that far south. Not my first rodeo, have spent time in Colombia, Peru, Argentina and Chile.Here's the long story: In the mid 80's to early 90's, my family lived in Cochabamba Bolivia. I bought a charango in the market after being amazed by Andean music. I loaned the instrument to a neighbor kid and it never returned. So about 9 1/2 years ago, my kids bought this one for me online from Cochabamba and sad as it is to see that happen to an instrument, it is worth the jokes.
I don't know if the charango ever saw Lake Titicaca but I did.
Hahahahahaha! Great point, Anthony!On the Internet you can rehearse your ad-libs.

You might fine this amazing/interesting. I am going to have some lessons from tiple and charango players/teachers. I am going to be on my uke, but I want them to teach me their strumming techniques--super excited about this!
Bummer.Opened the case after not playing it for quite a while...
