Just discovered this thread on Challis. Also enjoyed listening to John Schauer's YouTube presentation on his Challis. I have two Challis doubles, one Valenti's instrument with the 'Tutti' foot pedal and Corfam plectra; the other is a bit longer, same disposition except for the Tutti, a gentler sound with leather plectra. I knew Challis only briefly but found him to be a very generous man. I'd be interested in connecting with his admirers.
