My design after Tieffenbrucker 71.2cm
e'A440 8½ frets 17 ribs Model LI have designed this lute in the elliptical, full bodied style of the 1609
Magno Tieffenbrucker lute in the Bardini collection, Florence. The original has
37 heart and sapwood ribs of yew and it works well, aesthetically and
acoustically, with 17 ribs. It can be made also as an 8c or 9c lute, and a
fuller discussion of it is under the 9c version, for which I originally made the
mould.
