[LUTE] Re: Seven courses vs eight

[Geoff Gaherty]

I have a strong preference for 7 courses, but always keep the seventh 
course turned to F.  I tried it for a while tuned to D, but found it 
difficult to be always fretting the Fs, which seemed to be by far the 
most common basses in the music I play.  Any other bass notes I play up 
the octave.
