Hello,

I am new to harpsichord and someone near me has a Burton Concert Single, model #848B for sale. I haven’t seen or heard it yet.  Does anyone have any thoughts to share about this instrument?  I have a very small budget for a harpsichord and don’t mind doing work on it myself.  I would like to know if there is any reason to avoid this instrument, such as, is it much more difficult than most to maintain?  Does anyone have an opinion on the sound?   I have learned that the jacks are rather odd but can be replaced.  I would very much appreciate any information,

Sincerely,

           Renee
