Yup--
The double first course is sorta the sleeper in historical lute performance.
Along with the double course theorbos.
The top course doubled sound terrific at a
slightly lower pitch, seamless transition among the top three courses.

Hoi Jelma
Double first course. Have a look at all the wonderfull Sellas &c
attiorbatos in the Cité de la Musique in Paris, so many have a double
first course. Even my small archlute has a double first. ;-)
