I hope this helps and best wishes,

Thanks Stephan You have helped me before, I'll work on that little bit of
information and try to adapt it.

I agree, and I speak only from what I hear on my own sorry Lute, the

The paired strings of each double course on a lute are not quite exactly

but also the string spacing is wider at the bridge than at the nut).

Does it have anything to do with the time? Upstroke vs. Downstroke? (ie.
they are not actually plucked at the exact same time)?
Two strings plucked at the exact same time will stay in
phase, of course, only if they are tuned together.
As a numerical example, at A415, two strings initially
