The did this back in the 1908s? I think these lutes were made by Ian
Harwood and John Issacs. I am not sure of all the reasons why they are
not still around.

I wonder if you could relatively inexpensively construct a lute (the
bowl, at minimum) from carbon fiber (like some acoustic guitars) or
molded plastic (like an Ovation guitar), and what it would sound
like?
