====== Template for Instruments======
See also: [[:general:template_mfg]]

Please use this "template" to organize the information in a similar manner--that will make it easier for the public to find pertinent info. But be flexible--sections may be added, deleted or renamed if they do not apply.

You may wish to copy this "clean" template to paste into a new page:
  *[[/doku.php?id=:general:template_clean&do=edit|template]]

\\
The "rule of thumb" is that each section should fit on about one screen--if there's too much info, just make references like [[more_info]], and then follow the link to create the new page(s).

====== [instrumentdesignation] ======
For [a similar or oft-associated instrument], see [[:organette:some_organette:]].
<code>... see [[:organette:some_organette:]]</code>
