Got an email from Andreas Rogge to say that the lefthanded D chanter plumwood brass/boxwood with 4 keys F, G#, Bb and C was ready. All I have to do now is send Andreas the cheque.
I will let you all know when the new chanter arrives and then I will be selling my Rogge lefthanded D ebony chanter brass Art ivory 3 Keys F, G# and C
Sent my Cheque to Andreas Rogge on Thursday 8 January 2004 the full price for my new lefthanded D chanter plumwood brass/boxwood with 4 keys F, G#, Bb and C plus spare D reed.
I have asked Andreas if he had photo of the plumwood D Chanter but still waiting for this reply. If I get the photo I will post this on the UP forum.
The lefthanded D ebony chanter brass Art ivory 3 Keys F, G# and C will be on sale when the new chanter arrives from German.
The price for the Rogge lefthanded D ebony chanter brass Art ivory 3 Keys F, G# and C including reed:
Chanter £520
3 Brass Keys £190
Total £710 Pounds Sterling plus P+P.
I have not had luck getting through to Andreas’ shop via email. Fergus seems to have no trouble. Anyone else not getting through to his shop? I have a B set that has been on order for two and a half years. I wouldn’t mind getting a few snaps of it myself from Andreas…even if it was all in pieces or being threatened by a big hammer…
I would only get a reply by starting of the message with what I said yesterday
Hi Andreas
Please let me known tomorrow Tuesday 13 January 2004 about the following
Have you got any photos of the Left-handed D plumwood brass/boxwood chanter with 4 keys that you can email me with.
Has the sterling cheque arrived yet with you. When will you posting stuff by normal post"
I had times when I didn’t get email back for a long time, I would keep senting emails until I once got a reply from Jens .
First of all let me say that multiple correspondences via available media is not suitable to speed up the process. I hope that does not sound too arrogant but sorting out mail is a very time consuming business, time we’d rather making pipes.
Jens Kommnick (www.jenskommnick.de) is a sought-after multi-instrumentalist, teacher etc. who lives in the North of Germany. He played on Brian McNamara’s solo CD for instance. Andreas’s assistant’s name is Jens Wendel, a very competent, and very nice bloke from ‘de Palz’.
