Not surprisingly, Sanz indicates trills or mordents for the two lower courses in the first two books: Also, in his Regla quarta del trino Sanz offers this advice: I want to give a famous rule so that you know where a trill sounds good, and you can always do it even though it is

Hello Lex, With regard to what Sanz says about strumming the D minor chord and the resulting 4/6 position (the A in the bass): a considerable portion of his text is about how to play basso continuo on the guitar, and in accordance with his advice to use bourdons for that his tablature examples
