Yes, that would be perfect, but did it survive into the 18th century?
Could you point me to some evidence?

How about a bandora? Aren't there some accounts of the Germans

with a plectrum for baroque continuo?

plucked bass

I'm working on a project involving mid-18th-century dance music mostly
from France, Belgium and Austria. I'd like to have a non-keyboard
plucked instrument in the bass. What are my options besides theorbo,
archlute, harp? Mandora and Colascione come to mind - is there
anything else?
Thank you,
Doc
