Count 'em again, folks- I'm counting 7 courses on the main pegbox. Treble rider, and 12 more pegs. I've got three courses- 6 pegs on the extension, the bottom one looks like a darker wood replacement (ebony?) -So we have a 10 course. There is a Dutch picture of a young man playing one of these double pegbox lutes, I will hunt the online iconography sources and get back to you all.
It appears that a stuffed bird is trying to make an escape. No idea about that other thing, sausage/pepper grinder powder horn? Dan -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
