Description
In collaboration with John Dingley we bring you the DigiGurdy: a fully digital, midi-based Hurdy Gurdy. It plays like a regular Hurdy Gurdy, but the sound is completely electronic. So you can play it with headphones on, in the middle of the night, without the police showing up or your partner kicking you out. Other benefits include: it does not need rosin or cotton, and it does not go out of tune.
For more information and ordering please go to the dedicated website:
