Eight-course Renaissance lute

Using traditional techniques and based on a six-course lute by Magno Dieffopruchar (Venice, 1550), this version features a carved rosette, spruce soundboard and a bowl assembled from carob and guayubirà ribs. The neck, fingerboard and fittings combine fine woods and materials, echoing 16th-century craftsmanship.
