Final notes

I’ve designed this instrument with the purpose of making a Hurdy Gurdy with an acceptable sound, for 
a very good price. I hope that it enables people to start playing the instrument who would not have had 
the means otherwise, or are hesitant to invest thousands of dollars straight away.

The design is unconventional: it was designed from scratch with the above purpose in mind. Therefore 
the construction method is in many ways different from traditional instruments. It does however sound 
pretty good, and it is very playable. And because of the material and the method of construction, it is 
very stable

New players will still need to learn how to properly apply rosin to the wheel, and cotton to the strings. 
But there are many tutorials online, if you don’t have experienced players who can teach you.

Enschede, October 2020

Ps. This manual and the Nerdy Gurdy itself are an ongoing project. Please let me know how they can 
be further improved.
