Dear members,

I currently have a harpsichord in my workshop of which the case is made
entirely in oak. The instrument was not meant to be a copy but is inspired
by the Franco Flemish school. Apparently the choice for oak came from the
original owner: a music school want an instrument that was somewhat sturdy.
I have some vague memories that there is a historical (German?) instrument
also completely in oak. Is this correct? Any ideal what instrument that
would have been.

Anyway, on the outside there are some ugly water marks (light coloured). Is
there a good way to get rid of those?

Greetings,

Chris.
