Good question. Im thinking about rearranging the strings on my 7 course to try
it. Im just not getting the volume I want from the first string. My 7 course
was originally an 8 course so I have two extra pegs. Maybe after this Sundays
concert, Ill give it a try.
> Dear Collective wisdom,
As I said, I do. Good experience.

Sorry I’ve come to late to the discussion, but just a few things:
The iconography of 6c lutes usually (not always) shows a single first course.
Surviving late 16th/early 17th C lutes from the Venere workshop (and others)
usually have a double first - i.e. all lutes from treble to bass. Sellas
And my Turkish Saz, or Baglama, has THREE strings for the top course!

Interesting to note however that the ancestor of the european lute, ie
the arabic Oud, has had double chanterelles all throughout history...
in fact its the lowest string which sometimes is single.

Si Antonio,
very convincing. So the extra peg was perhaps an apendage from an even
earlier time, 14th-15th c.?
Funny that Sor /Aguado should have reinvented the DCC for their
Guitars!

I think, that one should be careful not to generalize. Like today
(where some even play with singles on ALL courses), there were
different uses also in the olden days. And look

Dear Edward,
Despite what the pegs on the vihuelas suggest, I've found plenty of
evidence that it was strung with a single first. We need to review our
ideas on the subject of vihuela stringing ...
Best wishes

Ad 1. It didn't. At least, not in Italy. May I add that I play a copy
of a Sellas liuto attiorbato with double first. And it's sheer joy as
it tends t to kinda "sing".
Ad 2. My guess is that players tended to prefer the single first
because it strikes the ear when the first course
17 matches
