There was a painting showing a 12c lute with a single peg box in the
Schaezlerpalais in Augsburg, where the lectures of the recent German lute
society meeting were located. I forgot the painter, though...

But on the other hand, it does seem plausible to me that builders experimented
with
adding one extra course to 11 course lutes, before they came up with the bass
rider.
Maybe Baron played one such experimental instrument?
Can't see why one should assume that. The lute he holds on the famous engraving
is an 11c lute.
