Dear lutenists,
I had my new Lauri Niskanen Venere 7-courser set a new bridge; the
original had 8.3cm between the extreme strings. That was too little.
Lauri changed it to 9cm, and that feels much better. To make my hand
learn the new distances I had to touch the strings and make a little
research. Luckily Joanambrosio Dalza has developed very good set of
tools to this kind of problems! ;)
Here I am touching the strings and making then some research there:

(Tastar de corde and Recercar dietro, 1508, f. 4r-5r)
Many have played these pieces, and everybody does them differently. That
is great!
All the best,
Arto
