Lex,
What is a pandora? (obviously not a bandora)

Well, Oliver Strunk writes "chitarrino". As far as I know,
chitarrino, 4
course "renaissance guitar", was not at all unknown in Italy in
times of
Agazzari... But I have never heard about "chitarrina", but of
course that
does not exclude its existence... ;-)

Arto
