Hi Marc, Regarding ceterone meaning big cittern in Italian, I forgot to mention that the cetera corsa is a big instrument. I have two here with 62cm string lengths, both with 8 doubled courses on the neck. They make variations on them now, but these two are based on old instruments in the Corsican museum. They have great tone and, believe it or not, can be tuned up to modern g', like an EG, without any problem at all.
