I currently have Mapes 10-38 strings on my 1906 A1 ,but I also like the La Bella 880L Light 9-36

I don't have a problem with volume - she's very loud ...

It was just dumb luck in my case. I bought my '06 on eBay for less than $1K only because I could return it if I wasn't satisfied. It was found in a Cali closet wrapped in towels. Definitely loved and...

Thank you for making Heikki's music available to those of us who never had the opportunity to see/hear him perform live, Seppo.
