[BAROQUE-LUTE] Lute strings for theorbo

[nigelsolomon]

Just out of interest, when N. North recorded his Piccinini CD some years 
ago he recorded it on a K. Jacobsen theorbo. I was interested in 
ordering the same instrument from Jacobsen and, if I remember correctly, 
he told me the fingerboard string length was 86cm. North is far from a 
giant, but he doesn't sound as if he is struggling with all those extra 
centimetres on the strings!
