Descant, refers to its size; placing this lute just above the alto lutes. It usually carries 13 strings in 7 courses with a scale length of 19.75\" (500mm).\u003cbr\u003eThe European lute is featured in instrumental music from the early Renaissance to the late Baroque periods. Its early origins are vague, but its real heritage comes from the Egyptian Oud. There is evidence of the lute in Europe as early as the 12th century, but it really became popular in the 15th century, falling out of use around 1800. The lute enjoyed a revival with the early music movement of the twentieth century and has grown in popularity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight hand, 7 Course Descant Lute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for right-handed players (strum with right hand, fret with left)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody made of 11 solid wood staves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifferent finishes available (Please select from \u003cstrong\u003eWood Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e option)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe neck and pegbox are made of Solid Wood \u003cb\u003e(Can see the table below for more information on woods used for each different model \/ Finish)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard is made of Ebony wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning pegs are made of Satinwood\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid Sitka Spruce soundboard with laser engraved rosette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 gut frets and 4 wooden frets\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale length: 500mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest quality 3 Nylon wound strings and 10 rectified Nylon strings are used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuggested tuning from high to low: A4, E4, E4, B3, B3, G3, G3, D4, D3, A3, A2, G3, G2,(can vary depending on player preference)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA=440Hz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncl: Heavy Padded Travel Case and Extra string set\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote: Lute Pegs are tapered and are held in by friction. As you tune in, press in on the pegs to seat them. This will seat the peg securely in the peg box of the lute. They must be pushed in for a secure hold. Only use enough pressure as necessary. If the pegs slip when released, use peg dope or wax-less chalk to increase the friction.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"TablePress\" data-table=\"44484\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AYAN STRINGS S.R.L","offers":[{"title":"Lacewood","offer_id":57391177695614,"sku":"LTS7L","price":131.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut Lacewood","offer_id":57391177728382,"sku":"LTS7VWL","price":131.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Maple","offer_id":57391177761150,"sku":"LTS7M","price":131.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut","offer_id":57391177793918,"sku":"LTS7W","price":131.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rosewood","offer_id":57391177826686,"sku":"LTS7R","price":131.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Rosewood Lacewood","offer_id":57391177859454,"sku":"LTS7VRL","price":131.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/4291\/4942\/files\/muzikkon-descant-lute-7-course-lacewood-1.jpg?v=1778496265","url":"https:\/\/ayanstrings.com\/products\/muzikkon-descant-lute-7-course-right-hand-1","provider":"AYAN STRINGS S.R.L","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
