as David points out Kapsberger is clear about how the sign % (Arpeggio) should be played
a chord
0
3
3
2

should be played Bass G then the G on the second string and the B on the first and finally the highest tone D on the third string (assuming a theorbo in A).

I think variations are up to us, though ... but of course we should at least know we are playing something which is not intended by the composer.

I hope not.  I think you p-i-m-i-p-i-m-i.  Kapsberger's instruction in the 
front of the book are pretty clear, if I recall: keep the same pattern, rather 
than arpeggiating bottom to top all the time.
