Where are the kits?  no -one ever seems to mention the contemporary  
ones with any affection. They were once an accessible  way to acquire  
a harpsichord, alas they are more expensive than ever. I note that  
Hubbard have stopped making their fortepiano kit.  Will Zuckerman or  
TPW  cease production too? What are we seeing here? What happened  
to the quest for authenticity? 'simple' jacks? Or is it now that we  
know a bit more the modern interpretations and models altered for  
maximal appeal  are like yesterday's leftovers?
sorry, end of rant.
