You seem a nice guy, and not in a rut... Check out this "toy" theorbo. eBay, Ouality1traders, theorbo bass lute, small. I know I'm going to be vilified, but their "medium", which goes out of stock fast, is the one of my interest. It was the "small" but the darn thing is the same size, almost, as my lute, and therefor the sound difference wasn't worth the money to me... The medium, however... :-) Yes, they are off-shore manufacture, Pakistan actually, but don't tell anyone and it will be alright... :-)
