Hi,
I am about to bar the soundboard of a new 6c lute. I am interested to hear how makers think it should be done. One maker told me he uses the same barring as a conventional 7c or 8c lute, but a bit lighter. Another said fewer bars -only two transverse bars on the bridge side of the rose, rather than the more usual three. I realise it is hard to be certain, but I would like to know what the collective wisdom thinks. Waiting with bated breath!
