Apparently it's at the Universitaets- und Stadtbibliothek, Koeln,
**Liure pour le lut / Pour Le Lut theorbe," MS 1.N.68 ([before
1976:] MS 5.P.177). 109 folios (many blank). It's in Boetticher's RISM
inventory, page 151. Also listed in Pohlmann (5th ed.), p. 144 (MS 1.
/ V.68 <sic: /V>; can't read his own handwriting). Giesbert's edition,
which is just a **selection** of pieces in transcription and
tablature(!) appeared in 1965. I think I also saw a reference in the
USB's online catalogue. Also to a microfilm (do they just have a
microfilm?). There was another manuscript in that library which had
pieces by Diomedes Cato and that one is "missing."
You should inquire at the library. Let us know what you discover.
