Hi-After just playing it now, I like the basses but the 1st and 2nd courses could be higher tension of course so I think I will go that way. Just curious--how many of you are playing baroque lutes at A=392? I think it works quite well on a larger lute, but I'm not convinced it should be done on a smaller lute(ie below 69cm). My 70.5cm Burkholzer will stay at 415.

Yes. Those are pretty much the only two options. > Right now it is at 392 but I'm wondering if it might sound better > with new strings. Any thoughts? Do you like it at 392 now? -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html --
