[BAROQUE-LUTE] Baroque lute newbie (waaahooo!)

Hi All,

Received my new lute Tuesday from Luciano Faria. It's verrry nice. I can't
say enough about it. Maybe I'll put pictures on Picasa or something.

Anyway, now I have to tune the thing. My teacher will show me, I'm sure, but
I can't wait until then.  I have Satoh's and Lundgren's methods, and I've
looked at Roman's website, so I understand the tuning, but if I tune the
first course to f3, the 13th course is waaay too slack to play. Even the
first course seems too slack at f3, but then I've never played a lute
before. Any advice?

Regards,

Jim
