Dear Collective Wisdom, There appear to be two main styles of fingerboard on 6c lutes. In one case the soundboard continues a little way up the neck and the fingerboard meets it in a straight line join, usually with no stings. In the other case the fingerboard extends a little way over the neck/body join and the soundboard starts where it leaves off, somewhere over the neck block. I would be interested to hear views on the pros and cons of each layout as well as any other ones you know about. Waiting with anticipation, Bill
