Dragon Pan

God knows I respect the work of all makers, but there's a world between glueing three layers of bricks together in your backyard with cement and thinking you're a professional mason.
Another gold digging case (or lack of self-criticism).

Dragon Pan #2 by "Christopher of the Wolves", starting price $1,100.

You can polish a rock, but at the end of the day, it's still just a rock.

Wow I was out playing one day and this guy came up to me and actually told me to look this guys work up but I couldn't find anything at the time

Yes - there is certainly nothing in taking the hammer... And I don't want to spread a "bad spirit" here...
But I often post from the newcomer point of view, who might have seen a handpan once in the street years ago and finally intends to spend $1,000-$2,000 on an instrument.
The difference of sound between a good and a bad instrument is HUGE in the handpan world...
It's too soon to sell, and especially at a professional price. Maybe it will be good one day, but at the moment there is no reason to ask someone to give you $1,100+ for this (a price range close to the cheapest Merakis or Aciels). It just resonates.

Yeaaah... I got into some kind of an argument with him on swap&sale on FB. He's convinced his stuff is worth every penny and does NOT appreciate negative feedback!
