Dear lutenetters, Has anyone ever experimented tuning a theorbo like a guitar with an E top string, no re-entrant tuning? to facilitate the player with reading a continuo part from music notation? this would essentially give the same tessitura as a regular theorbo and allow to play the melody on the top string instead of mucking around on the 3 rd string... what would be the top string gauge suggestion for a 74 cm string length?
