LarsWilladsen Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Here's one that really took me by surprise. A Wheatstone "(Refurbished by renowned Master craftsman to concert condition)". And here's the big surprise: It has metal reeds! From that period you'd have expected wooden reeds from a Wheatstone http://cgi.ebay.com/Wheatstone-English-Con...1QQcmdZViewItem Cheers Lars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m3838 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Next thing you know, somebody'll put this "fact" in the Wikipedia. Wikipedia Celebrates 750 Years Of American Independence I don't know. I didn't like the article. Is it from Anion? Kinda less bright than expected and not funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirge Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I know nothing about the Wikipedia, but it sounds awfully like the Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy from all this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
