Nick: I don't think you know what you're talking about. I've never seen aircraft equipment of that vintage on 115VAC with that sort of plug (28VDC is much more common, and AC power is generally marked 400Hz); I also don't believe that BK Precision has ever built aeronautical equipment (although I ma...

my stuff is weird and marginal enough that i doubt it would impress your client. i've had seven or so things mastered by him over the years, and i've always been happy by the time we're done. i've had stuff done by better known people and didn't find them nearly as willing to work with me to make it...

i would guess this is bruel & kjaer, not bk precision, from the color & style of the faceplate. most likely this would have been intended for vibration or acoustic analysis. edit: and the logo is pretty close to their current one...i've had some b&k test gear of that vintage, which looked quite simi...

Thanks! Yes, the wheel is rosined - the strings are unwound piano wire. I like it a little bit harsh :). Real hurdy gurdies wrap the string in cotton or silk fiber at the point of contact to smooth out the sound, which I didn't do. I'm using a fairly rough plastic wheel, also. Glad you like it! But ...

Bass electric "hurdy gurdy". The keys are held on with magnets & are movable; I made a bunch, but only have a few on it here. Haven't figured out how to play it yet, but here's how it sounds.

Fair enough! I guess I was responding more to it being droney, long form improvisation with (forgive me) "exotic" sounding scales, and less to the timbre or tuning. Paul's second track on that link, to me, doesn't sound like a totally different universe, or something by SRB like "Space Prophet Dogon...
