Hi Stuart,
Beautiful and I'm happy someone has finally started looking into the
Merchi publications for (English) guitar. As I have recently done some
research into some of his music I can add a bit of background info.
Merchi actually preferred the "Spanish" guitar as can be noted fr

Hello
Though my experience comes from amplifying a baroque mandoline rather
than lutes - it's almost the same thing (and to my eternal frustration
people almost always think it is a lute ;) ).
You might consider using a Schertler DYN-G as well as the DPA. Contact

Hi Stuart & Martyn,
Sorry to say but the most recent theories say the instrument wasn't
exactly invented in England / Great Britain. Most evidence seems to
point towards the instrument being imported (though it did transform a
lot after that) from continental Europe - probably German
Hi Stuart,
Yes, the terms for plucked instruments are confusing all the time. Even
this day - if you say guitar, some people think of the electric, other
of the jazz, folk or even other instruments... However, I believe you
mixed up something in my argument. The English guit(t)ar I s

Hi Martyn & Monica,
Finally I have managed to dig up an iconographical source relevant to
the discussion, 16th century Italy. Of course, nothing proves that the
instrument depicted is a "chitarrino" but at least it proves some
lute-like instrument of soprano range at that time and pl
itterns seems to be consistently played with
a plectrum throughout its history, even after the lute switched to
fingerstyle plucking.

Hello Monica,
Stuart relates to some of the written sources in 16th century France -

Some of these inventories try to distinguish between "guiterne" and

Hi Stuart and Andreas,
It's very complex if only have a name to go on; I think we all agree.
But if you've got tablature or a tuning chart it's a completely
different story.
The French baroque mandolin called mandore has a tuning which has
fifths and fourths (most notably the c'-g
