gm not nearly as bad as it seems on an A theorbo. Peri also wrote a lot in g and G maj. and his pieces work well too. Even F is okay once you figure out how to stay away from the Bb barr chord on the first fret. Reentrant tuning helps . R. From: Ed

I wonder whether the historical Italian lutenists had a significant advantage in their warm climate over the northern Europeans who, with their cold climate and crude heating systems, may have often had cold hands. To get on or off this list see list information at

[LUTE] Stringing

2008-01-27 Thread Stewart McCoy
As far as I can see, Louis Pernot has the strings of his lute strung in the normal order, i.e. with the bass of each course nearer the ceiling. However, the lowest courses are spaced at the nut in such a way that the gap between the strings of each course is greater than the gap between courses.

You can ALWAYS change the strings on a theorbo, shortening the neck, etc big problem. Make sure you have enough pegs and holes and grooves to string it and tune it anyway you want! Guidelines (highly subjective, of course) It should fall between these very general guidelines String length 77-82
