I've just spent a few days away and wanted to take a small instrument
which was not too precious. I've just got 108 pieces pour renaissance
guitare arranged by Pascale Boquet (Vol 18 of Le Secret des Muses)
published by the French Lute Society. I haven't got a four-course guitar.

Yes, nice book, I like very much the Playford pieces, and the arrangement

I've thought for some time of getting a cheap uke and restringing it
to play stuff like Mudarra's work for four course guitar. I thought I might
be kidding myself, but it looks like a viable option, from what I'm reading
here.
Any suggestions as to size (mensur) and string
I play a Concert-sized uke, the size larger than the usual soprano, but
I think a tenor would be better-suited, with a low fourth string
(Aquila). And don't buy the cheapest. Good tenors start around -L-120 -
about 150 dollars. A student of mine has an excellent one by a company

I have played ukulele on and off from the age of eight and actually now
have more income from uke students than from lute and guitar students
put together. This has been a recent phenomenom, and YouTube has a lot
to do with it, that and the economic downturn. Mostly people just want

I went to my local guitar dealer. ( By the way, his initial selling

Finally I bought a tenor uke

Although not quite my thing, I think ukulele is a fine modern surrogate for
4-course guitar. All I can really add is recommendation for a few solo
recordings. Several 4-course guitar pieces on:

Luth/Pieces pour Guitare.
Hi, all,
Agreed on all counts, and if you get one of the larger sizes, concert
or tenor, you get a longer string length, 15 and 17 respectively.
A baritone might come the closest to a Ren. guitar with a 19 string
length, and though a bit more expensive, certainly not as much
Try also the double strung ukeleles.
On a personal note, if I were a female string player, I would find
some of the language sexist.
I remember asking a female lute player why she never went to workshops.
Wow, did I get an earfull.
