Here's a link to the Society's list of facsimiles, etc., in case there are
other things that interest you. Dd 2.11 isn't listed yet:

Some of us have had to wait for 30 years for the Lord Herbert facsimile. Bob Spencer had it at the top of his list, but was unsuccessful in getting the library to release it for a facsimile. It would be at the top of my list, too. It was quite a frustrating experience for him. He would mutter, "We'll just have to wait until he [the librarian] retires."

Bob Spencer even was a little less friendly than that. He expected the librarian to die first before having a chance to get the Herbert. See "Proceedings of the international lute symposium (Utrecht, 1986)

Dd 2.11 is listed "in the pipeline":

Subject: [LUTE] Future facsimiles from the Lute Society


There have been some queries about the Lute Society's future plans for publishing facsimiles, following the launch of Cambridge Dd. 2.11. Chris Goodwin, the Secretary of the Society, tells me that the next on the list is Herbert of Cherbury, though Dd.2.11 will have to pay for itself first - which sounds like a good reason to go and buy a copy if you haven't yet
done so!
