I've always loved baroque music, and recently(past few months) discovered my love for lute, theorbo, and baroque guitar music. Absolutely insane craftsmanship!
Great work. I am planning to do a theorba in two years. I think the folding mechanism is one of the difficulties in designing the instrument. Which wood did you choose for the body, neck and fingerboard? Thank you a lot. Greetings from Brazil.
hello, José ... the folding system is very simple and can be used on any theorbo design ... As for the woods used for the neck, the important thing is that they are light, not very flexible and very well seasoned. I use spruce from Val di Fiemme, covered with ebony and with maple inserts near the joints. For the body I prefer heavy and glassy woods, some types of rosewood. From here on, the discussion gets more complicated, I hope I have been useful and good job ...
Strumento stupendo,grazie per aver condiviso il video.Volevo inoltre chiederti se l'azione delle corde la determini in fase di disegno progettazione,non essendoci l'osso sul ponte come sulla chitarra,Grazie .Mauro
