Cittern Kit
The same Cittern is offered in kit form for home assembly. The price includes the license to build one instrument for
private use.
An important feature of our cittern kit is the inclusion of a mould to ensure
success, even for the first time builder, so assembly of the body can begin
immediately.
Our kit contains all the parts to build a traditional four course cittern.
The ribs and back are supplied in English sycamore sanded to thickness and
ready for assembly around the mould.
The neck is pre-shaped with the pegs already fitted to reamed holes and the
fingerboard has been machined to ensure accurate fitting of the brass frets.
All the parts in the kit are made from traditional materials and include a
Swiss pine top and sycamore back.
The instruction manual reveals the secrets of carving a rose.
A fully dimensioned plan and a detailed 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.
