Dear Matthew,
thank you for pointing once again at the source! John Sturt's lute book
bears collector Matthew Locke's stamp, that's why it is now called the

I'm thinking theorbo purchase... Where does one get a nylon theorbo
14-course string set? I measured my 8-course lute strings, which went

location for the course . . .kidding, of course. Wonderful photos of

I buy strings from him all
