Take a look to 05:02-05:04, and you can clearly see double strung (1st 
single) archlute stringing (and also hear it :-). In 04:08-04:09 you 
can see the other instrument standing behind the player. And that 
instrument seems to be a single strung theorbo - I would say it has the 
first two strings in the lower octave, the normal theorbo way.

All the best,

Arto
