Dear Steffen,
John Isaacs built lutes with Ian Harwood in the 1970's. Maybe you could
get some more information via the Lute Society, [EMAIL PROTECTED], of which
Ian Harwood is president.
Not much detail but may put you in the right direction.
(Nice to inherit lutes!!)
Good luck
Hello everyone,
I just posted a zip file of M. Newsidler's Libro Primo (Italian tab. =

Is it possible to build a good lute using screws instead of glue?
Aluminum screws could be used to reduce the dead weight effect.
The screws could be locked in with a tiny drop of glue at the head.
1. How much of the gluing could be replaced with screws?
2. How would the sound suffer?
A few years ago, one of our internationally touring recitalists did a
complete program devoted to Melchior Newsidler, son (not brother) of Hans.
He will probably have a CD one of these years. He's the type of player who
works on everything before deciding what to record. And there's a lot of

Yes, I posted Bill Merdith's message to illustrate the perils of attempting
to equate old ecomonies with modern ones. The valid comparison would be
within one economy, perhaps in one geographical area. That's why I gave
the comparision (the only one I had at hand) between a ream of paper and a

Hi Herb,
There aren't too many places on a lute where you could use screws.
The soundboard and the ribs of the back are about 1/16 inch thick,
and the ribs are joined edge-to-edge with only a reinforcement of
paper or parchment strips on the inside. There is no substantial
thickening of the ribs
No! Because each joint and their integrity play a critical part in how the
Lute sounds. If you attempted to put the staves together by only joining
them at the block and end cap, the gaps between the staves are going to
vibrate against each other instead of with each other.Of course we are
In the October 2003 Lute News there is an interview with Bob Barto in which he says
he started
playing the Renaissance and Baroque lutes at the same time. Is this common? How
difficult is it to
learn the playing styles and right hand positions simultaneously? For those of you who
regularly play

Such a thing has been partly done; a carbon fibre belly was used on a lute by Charles
Besnainou (reported on this list once or twice long ago). There's a bit of a story and

I believe Charles Besnainou in France has built a lute out of carbon
fiber, or was it graphite.?
