Wish I had one:

For now, I make do with "1/2" Liuto- singles all the way. It works; it sounds great, and my string expense & tuning problems are 1/2 of the real thing. Still want the real thing, but it ain't happening in this lifetime.

    Hi--and this brings up a desire of mine to hear more players use a true
    liuto attiorbato--that is with octave strings on all the basses. I find
    the liuto attiorbato much more satisfying than the archlute with single
    basses. And what is really annoying--an attiorbato with single strings.
    I have two rather small liuto attiorbatos (fingerboard sl at 57cm).My
    dream is to have one set up as follows-- 64/100cm.

      Hi Monica, both books are for the same instrument, which is a liuto
      attiorbato. The author tells in the preface of the 1623 edition the
      number of courses intended and the tunning. There is also some tips
      about technique for both the lute and the chitarrone. The second book
      is posthumous, lots of printing errors but the same instrument
      intended. You don't need to check piece by piece!

            There are two books of music by Piccinini, Intavolatura di
    liuto
        et di
            chitarrone (1623) and Intavolatura di liuto (1639).    Is there
        any
            difference between the instruments intended for the pieces in
        each
            book.    Are some of them for just a 6-course instrument and
        others for
            an instrument with extra bass strings or are all of them for
    the
            latter.    How can one tell the difference without going
    through
        every
            pieces looking for extra figures above the stave?
