Dear All,
Earlier today I was looking at a facsimile of Louis de Rigaud's
_Airs Faits, et Mis en Tablature de Luth_ (Paris, 1623). A facsimile
of this book was published by La Société de Musicologie de

Dear Mathias,
They look like three lutes nominally in g', g', and d'. However, one
of the g' lutes involves a re-entrant tuning like a mini theorbo.
Much of the part-writing looks a bit odd with this lute, so people
sometimes say that Besard didn't know what he was doing, or forgot

Thanks, everyone!
Much Appreciated!!

Thank you for posting the picture, most definitely double frets. There are
a couple of more interesting points about the painting. Has anyone
identified the composition open on the table, it seems quite clear and if
accurate it would confirm the accuracy of the double frets, in as much a

Jon,
you are right for quite a number of paintings. With regard to the
Holbein, you are wrong. Assuming Sean's (who sent me the picture)
consent I have uploaded it to my webspace. Have a look at:

Dear Sean,
I used gut double frets on my lutes for years - they do "buzz" a bit for the
first few days but that stops when they are bedded down and after that
they wear a lot longer and stay in position better than single strand frets.
I find the double strand knot easier to tie and have less troub
