Dear b-lutenists (cc to normal lutenists)
Today I tubed an interesting and in some ways strange piece, a Tanz
(XXXIX) in ms. Wittgenstein. While the piece is in a way very simple, it is
also interestingly strange - I have not analysed it yet, but something nice
happens there here and there. And
Some builders will actually set the octave string holes in the bridge down a
little lower, closer to the soundboard by a fraction of a millimeter; never
tried one of those lutes although seen a few- I've done the pushing and tugging
bit and gotten a little more control, it does feel better to

A great poetic title - thanks. I'll try to locate the music, it a nice

It is an old paper, and Toyohiko has certainly changed his ideas

How on earth do you produce the same note on the third fret on the second

No! Obviously you know nothing about the

Hi Monica,
A couple of things you might check (though you may well have done so
already) - Loose string ends at the peghead or the bridge - these
could shift around with humidity changes. Don't want to worry you, but

Not a guitar person myself, particularly, but I'd have thought that
these fancy rosettes are a place where buzzing might be located too -
some little bit of parchment waggling like a tuning fork maybe? Again,
that could be influenced by humidity. Then again there are the inlays

Dear Martyn
I am grateful to Charles Besnainou (who is a French research person on
strings of all sorts) for helping me to understand this situation a little
better.
Charles learnt gut string making from Sofracob, and he had an excellent
relation with its director M. Lenoble.
He tells me
I second William. I hesitate to jump in on these mysteries, but in my
makers years I actually never saw a loose-brace caused buzz... Most were
from some bridge problem, and as I was a classic guitar guy, mainly
ill-fitting bridge bones. If you have one of those reverse-funnel rosettes

I know much detailed discussion has transpired since. However, the fact
that the issue is pitch-related, most noticeable at a particular pitch even
if sounded on different courses, implies that the issue is probably not
related to a single string or the bit of hardware specific to any one string

On their website they say they make a limited number of gauges only. If
you buy sets from them, they add Kuerschner, Kathedrale or Aquila
