"4 double strings, the three lower strings are tuned in octaves, the highest strings are tuned in unison. The tuning is similar to an octave mandolin in G – D – A – E, but the G string is tuned one octave higher than expected. So the tuning goes down from G to D, than up to A (on whole tone above the G), and up again to the E".
Seller's NOTE:
The instrument is in very good condition, of great build quality and with exceptional sound.
I customized the cedar soundboard by staining in for a rustic look, and added a white pickguard to relate with the purflings, thus achieving a modern front with the classic rear end of the Lute.
In a few spots you will notice very light scratches due to ownership and usage.
