 LUTE GUITAR-Geared
 |

Click to enlarge image(s)
|
***STEEL STRING, GEARED GUITAR LUTE***
*The steel string lute-guitar is an attractive and lightweight instrument of a similar size and scale to a standard classical guitar, but with a body like a lute.
*In keeping with the character of a lute, the bowl-shaped body is achieved by edge-gluing together staves of uniformly thin hardwoods bent to a specific shape with no heavy internal bracing to retain its form.
*The bowl is made of two alternating woods: Lacewood (Platanus orientalus) is a light-colored hardwood that has color similar to maple and has distinctive rays that provide what is known as a "beeswing" pattern. A member of the sycamore family, its timbre characteristics are similar to maple generally providing a brighter tone than rosewood. The dark-colored wood is sheesham rosewood (Dalbergia sissoo) that affords a warmer mellower tone. The combination of the two offers a blended timbre as well as a desirable look.
*European spruce is used for the soundboard and, in keeping with the design of 16th-Century lutes, the soundhole is a carved rosette in an attractive geometric pattern which is cut into the soundboard itself and is not inlaid of different material.
*Most exciting is that the soundboard bracing pattern follows bracing used in world-famous Kohno classical guitars.
*The mahogany neck has a shape is similar to a classical guitar with a 45mm wide nut of ebony.
*The top of the peg box has a woman's head carved on the top.
*Using standard steel classical guitar strings, it is tuned like a guitar in e, b, G, D, A, E tuning.
*If it is to be used for lute music, the 3rd string may be tuned a semi-tone down to F# to enable lute fingering.
*The guitar is outfitted with smooth-operating gold tuners with black ebonized tuning key buttons.
*The overall length is 1030mm and the scale length is 647mm, similar to a normal guitar.
*Satin lacquer finish.

*The lute enjoyed a revival with the early music movement of the twentieth century, and has grown in popularity.
*Special Note: The strings are installed on the instruments in the workshop and, while playable, are put through some rigorous testing.

Hi Marcus!
I just got my lute...IT'S FREAKIN BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you so much for your help!
One question though(extremely minor!)
I rooted around in the packing and I found the lute manual, and the CD, but apparently there are no extra materials, specifically, any catalogs or literature that I can pass along to the head of the mnusic department. Would you be able to send me some printed materials?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!

Remember, tuning pegs are pegs, not screws or bolts. If one
is loose, put a little chalkboard chalk on it so it grips. The same remedy
harpists and players of pegged instruments have been using for thousands of
years.
