Dear Luters,
Might one of you charming people be able to pass along the following
article? It is:
Lynda Sayce, 'Continuo Lutes in 17th and 18th century England', Early
Music, 23 (1995), 667-684.
I'd be eternally grateful.
Many thanks,
Benjamin

Dear all,
delete immediately, if you are not interested in my tubings... ;)
So you who did not delete:
This evening I tried to play one solo lute version of the famous
Gilderoy ballad. The text actually seems to be quite politic -
commenting the very strict English law of the safe of the
Dear Sam and All
This is a belated message on the topic of this tuner. I agree
entirely with Sam's message below. The two tuners, the Sonic Research
and the Korg orchestra are sort of complementary. I have both, but for
keeping the lute in tune, the turbo tuner is much much

Will email it over off list.

Dear fellow lutenutters,
I can think of a good reason for synthetics. I live in the tropics, Singapore,
to be precise, where the temperature is usually in the 70% - 85% range, and on
rainy days it goes up to 100%. gut trebles don't last more than a few days
here. 0.75 and larger seem to be ok
Dear all,
Thanks so much - got it!
Best,

You don't have to live in them tropics to have these troubles.
The same goes for New York City, known for extreme humidity swings.
Ben's axe may simply have unstable pegs, or structural issues.

Hello Francesco
Yes the replacement cover is exactly the same. I think the
problem is both because the original cover is as you say inherently
weak, and EU 9V batteries are perhaps a little larger than some others
making it more difficult to close the cover.
I hadn't
The entire case (including battery cover) of the new version is made
from very classy brushed aluminium. I've already dropped the tuner a
few times and it seems to be pretty bomb proof.

Funny, I was thinking about the same thing today. My instruments are
never in tune when taken out of the case for the first time everyday
day. I'm on sinthetics (Aquila), but I believe on gut the result would
be much worse, the weather in Rio is very close to Singapore...
Hi All
My lute originally (made 2010) had carbon strings and I changed to nylgut. The
tuning, tuning, tuning every 5 mintues drove me nuts and I did want more of a
'gut' sound. Living in Melbourne (Aus) in a house with little heating or air

My $0.02, living in Sydney Australia, is that nylgut mitigates some
of he effect of fairly extreme weather changes. We can have a thunder
storm roll in and have the temperature drop by 10+C in the space of as
many minutes. Gut just gives up in those circumstances.
Part B of this is the effect
Hi--this is interesting. Sometimes I have left a carbon and silver
strung 13 course lute for months of not playing and then take it out of
the case and -all- the strings are still in tune. I do live in a very
dry stable climate though...
