Milan also notated the top string as the upper line didn't he?

Yes - that is certainly so - I had forgotten that. It suggest Neapolitan but doesn't prove what shape the instrument was.

Monica et al.,

Note also that--very unusually--the Barberiis pieces are in inverted Italian tablature . . . with the upper line being the highest pitched string. Another indication that they are somehow unique?

There is a case to be made that this music by Bareriis isn't for
figure-of-eight 'normal'-if-tiny 'Spanish guitar but for a small
gittern/mandore-type instrument.

There no hard evidence that the 4-course guitar was played in Italy.

Thanks for the reminder, Arthur. I knew about these but had forgotten
them
(too). It is more support that the little guitar was being played and
even
written for.

Monica surely has simply forgotten about these Italian guitar pieces.
Just four pieces in a century is virtually the same as saying there are
no pieces.<g>:
