Hi Rob--
you can see the lute here
http://www.lautenvonholst.de/fotos3.html

It is by Andreas von Holst, who also worked with Bob Lundberg.
The body is Vienna C36, old numbering, which makes a great archlute.

I use a bunch of different strings, some nylon, some carbon, some 
gut. The sound difference with the different strings is really not so big.
