David Rubio 1967 Lute - 8 courses (copy of 17th century lute with eight courses and 14 strings)

The lowest six courses are doubled and the highest two are single strings.

Variation from original period instruments:

  • the string length is the same as Bream's guitar

  • frets are metal, not gut

  • built a little heavier to take the string tension.

-the higher frets on the body have been changed throughout the years as the instrument has been repaired.
