I am posting the information below regarding a New list that I have started. I am looking for a volunteer-host for this list. The list is closed but unmoderated and for fans of Lowden guitars to share info. I have recently graduated from the Univ. of Hawaii and my account there is a "gift". Therefore, I cannot ask the Univ network to host my list. I hope that someone here can help. As this is a small and free list, I would rather not pay for a site to host it--unless there was no other option. Aloha, Leon ============================================================================== LOWDEN via [log in to unmask] Cult of Lowden guitar evangelists LOWDEN is an open, unmoderated discussion for guitarists who are enthusiasts of Lowden guitars. Discussion topics may include: - reviews/recommendations of individual model and pickup/amplification setups. - reviews of sound qualities of various wood combinations - friendly advice on care, maintenance, etc. - problems - best prices/best dealers - recent acquisitions - recent performances, recordings, and triumphs - sightings (e.g., Eric Clapton at the Grammy's, Cassandra Wilson's guitarist, etc) - Lowden-related anecdotes - guitars by other luthiers that may appeal to us (although Lowdens will remain the focus of this list) - and for what styles/qualities we use them - anything else you care to contribute As membership and discussion develops, I hope to create a FAQ (with the help of volunteers) and a Who's Who list.
