 The baroque lute is about, probably
available, but while I'd be willing to spend a year or two learning  
dminor
tuning and such, I'm really looking to develop some continuo ability.

If you can use the Baroque lute why not just string it up with single  
strings? At least there will be enough pegs and the RH spacing would  
be in the ball park.
