Hi Andrew, I for one wouldn't go for EMS. The initial purchase price would be within anybody's reach but there are additional costs such as refitting the pegs so one actually can use them for tuning. Also they invariably have to be set up well. If done you'll end up having a half decent student lute at best. I for one wouldn't bother. Better to save up a bit more or go for a second hand lute in good condition.
