Cembalino Kit
The same instrument is offered in kit form for home assembly.
In addition, you will find a turned stand and a music desk
specially designed for it.
The price includes the license to build one instrument for
private use.
A fully dimensioned plan and instruction manual take the builder through the
construction of the instrument in a clear and concise manner, with 'step by
step' photographs further illustrating each stage.
All the kits Include
free access to our customer 'Helpline' should you need any advice on
construction, setting-up or playing.
The Cembalino Kit is now supplied as solid timber throughout. Only the highest quality materials are
used, 'Swiss' pine for the soundboard, tulipwood for the baseboard, beech for
the jacks, holly for the tongues and English sycamore for the accurately mitred
casework parts, music desk and finely cut mouldings.
Complete in every detail the kit
includes, plectra, tuning pins, balance pins, hitch pins, bridge and nut pins, a
set of brass stringing and a tuning lever. Even the parts to make a set of
special clamps to secure the bentside have been provided.
Our Cembalino kit is ideal for the first time harpsichord builder.
The turned stand and the music
desk are available as extra kits that provide all the parts to build the
attractive stand and desk shown in the picture of our finished instrument.
Cut from matching English sycamore the legs and cross rail of the stand are
turned to a high standard so the kit builder only has to final sand and polish.
The attachment plates are planed with moulded edges whilst the feet are bandsawn
to shape ready for hand finishing.
The stand can either be permanently assembled and carried separately from the
instrument or left so that it can be taken apart to fit in the carrying case
with the instrument.
A simple hard carrying case is
available as optional extras for safe transportation and
there can be a considerable saving in shipping costs if the case is ordered with
the kit as everything can be packed into the case and sent in only one crate.
