There is a triple headed Theorbo or Angelique in the München Stadtmuseum
(9-126), that has all ivory on the neck as well as the body - obviously a late
modification. I posted photos on the http://lutegroup.ning.com site. trj

Two votes for bamboo, so far- best in category; home fretting, kitchen
division.
Maybe fish bones, some seem to be pretty straight, and about the right
size, coming off the spine. Perfect with the recommended fish glue.

William,
While body frets were certainly not standard (Francesco was just one
player known for going above the frets, as not doubt was Pietro Bono and
others) , they were an option going as far back as the late 15 Century-
see Lorenzo Costa's "Concert", ca. 1485-95, National Gallery, London. 3
What nobody has mentioned yet is that body frets, while not unknown,
were comparatively rare back in the day. There's a brief mention of
them in 'Varietie' and only a few paintings show evidence of their
use. Accurate stopping of the string on the soundboard might well have

I'd suggest hide or fish glue. Then it's possible to unglue and replace
a worn fret.

Thanks Alexander-
I've thought of that, but what stopped me was,
1. One would need a double diameter size fret so that it could be split
lengthwise to provide a flat surface for glue up. 2. When not being
stretched under tension around the neck, pieces of gut tend to be wiggly
little bastards.
I have used the properly sized pieces of fret gut in the past. One gets a
consistent material this way.
