The Renaissance cittern was a popular instrument during the Renaissance period, often played alongside the lute and guitar, and known for its bright, plucked tone. This instrument typically features four double or triple courses and a relatively small, compact design that made it easy to play and transport. It was commonly tuned to a variety of tunings, such as C-G-D-A or G-D-A-E, and was used in a variety of musical settings from the court to more informal occasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Renaissance cittern was played with a plectrum, and while it was similar in appearance to other plucked string instruments, it produced a distinct, sharper sound that complemented both solo and ensemble music. The instrument itself features a flat back, often made of hardwood, and a soundboard made from softwood like spruce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e4-Course Renaissance Cittern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eBody made of Solid Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eSolid Sitka Spruce soundboard with laser-engraved rosette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eThe neck and pegbox are made of Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eFingerboard made of Ebony wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003ePegs made of Cocuswood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e19 steel frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eScale length: 452mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eBest quality Steel strings used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eSuggested tuning: e e, d d, g g g, a a (can vary depending on player preference)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eIncl: Heavy Padded Travel Case and Extra string set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AYAN STRINGS S.R.L","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56896489062782,"sku":"CTRN4M","price":252.22,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/4291\/4942\/files\/01.jpg?v=1777556725","url":"https:\/\/ayanstrings.com\/products\/4-course-renaissance-cittern-maple-by-muzikkon","provider":"AYAN STRINGS S.R.L","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
