[LUTE] Re: Take II: last joints that bend backwards.

[LGS-Europe]

How so, Vance? I have a double first course lute too, and don't see the 
connection. What's different in first and second or third courses?

I will offer my opinion on the right hand.  I play a Lute with a doubled 
first course.  Having the ability to collapse the first joint of the digits 
on the right hand is crucial in getting a proper sound out of the 
instrument strung in this manner.
