Batov's workshop, and I should state, with all due respect, that I disagree with the identification of the Dias-based instruments as vihuelas. This is a subject on which I have already expressed my views on the lute-list, and my reasons for objection to such an identification are available on its archives. While I don't intend to open again the can of worms, I nevertheless felt that I should let statements regarding the Dias guitar such as "many agree that these instruments are suitable choices upon which to base the construction of a vihuela" (only one luthier as far as I know of), or the questionable description of some instrument as "Dias vihuela in E" or "Dias vihuela in A" pass unnoticed.
