Why does M. Neusidler (Intabolatura di Liuto, 1566) uses the symbol 'X' for
the tenth fret but 'XI' for notes that would normally be on the twelfth
fret?

I have one, almost identical to it. It is very small, and it was brought
to the USA from Messina, Italy, after WWII.

I've attached pictures of an instrument I found that I believe may be a Lute.

Oh, it's all challenging. That's the fun. But much of it becomes
less challenging with practice.
One tip I found out on my second lute is that it might be more
tedious to make a bowl with 11 or more ribs, but it's easier to fit
them. My first lute had 9 ribs and it was harder than heck t

I think that varys for each of us.
The bowl is certainly one major challenge, getting the ribs to thickness;
bending them to about the right shape without sin

Just remember to not try to get the ribs to final thickness before
assembly of the body. Final thickness - and note, rib thickness is not
all that important, it will play fine with a paper mache body, I know,
I did it - is actually achieved after the body is glued up through

If you don't have a thickness sander (the Old Ones didn't either, so
don't worry) simply clamp one end onto your flat bench top, and using a
small plane (I use a low angle one-handed plane), plane to the required
thickness (ie to allow some trimming and shaping on the mould). For
I use a bandsaw to resaw the stock to approximate thickness (about 3.5mm)
and then a thickness sander to take it down to 1.8mm. The biggest mistake an
amateur makes in rib thicknessing is to make the too thin. They bend nicely
but you have left no "meat" on the rib for scraping, sanding and edge

For my thicknesses I resawed on the bandsaw, then I tried both the
