    This was my poor, older brother's favorite song. I remember Merle used to play it over and over. One day I pulled out the plug because I was too young to know how to work the stereo. He was very angry, but he checked his anger and educated me first on how to work the stereo properly, then secondly about the song and the meaning of its lyrics. He died at only 52 of cancer long ago, but I think of him from time to time.

      replace the friction pegs. They're kinda pricey, but worth it. Thanks for the kind comments.

      An 8 course lute goes from the D below the octave below middle C (so nearly 2 octaves below middle C) to the G above middle C, but, if you use the last body fret you can add another octave. I think the Baroque lute goes even lower.
