<p>I don't know how good you regard "good quality", John, but there's a few of them on eBay right now. In fact there's always a few of them on eBay. After a quick look, this one seems decent enough if that crack in the varnish near the neck joint is superficial or has been fixed:…</p>

<p>Thanks for your response. No, I don't suppose there would be any reason to record them. Next time there is a physical meeting I could play what I remember to see if anyone recognises. them. Very likely they would be from the 'Thorough School' that you mention.</p>

<p>Do you know which Ellis tutor these exercises came from? That would be helpful. He published a variety of tutors.</p>
<p>Ellis' "Thorough School" has 6 beginner's exercises and then 12 "easy lessons" which use commonly known tunes as their basis.</p>
<p>I don't know of any recordings of any of the Ellis "exercises" or "easy lessons".</p>
