I don't have a 6-course - but one of the Vargas y Guzman mss. includes some
pieces which are presumably for such.

Subject: [VIHUELA] six-course guitar
My reading of Fernandiere has got me interested in the 6c guitar. I was
lucky enough to play an original Pages, owned by Jim Westbrook, and
thought
'Hmm...I fancy one of these!' - but put it on the back burner.
The question is - what repertoire exists specifically for it? We know that
Sor and Aguado used them when they were young men. Moretti, of course -
but
not repertoire pieces. And of course the string quartets plus guitar of
Boccherini.
Has anyone here got a 6c?
