excelente informacion, sobre la afinacion francesa, mi pregunta es: veo que sobra una clavija, ¿es con propositos esteticos? por que conte nueve cuerdas y diez clavijas.
You see the same thing with a lot of lutes where the highest course (also called the "chanterelle") is a single string - there are probably many reasons for it. Some that occur to me: *Historically, making a matched pair of strings with such a small diameter would be challenging to do by hand. Using a single string would avoid the time/expense of this challenge, and avoid any tuning issues introduced by the strings being different sizes. *If the melodic line is often played on the high string, it would be easier to achieve a clear sound with a single string (you could use rest-stroke as well, which might improve volume?).
Great sound and resonance for a replica of the Stradivari guitars - presume that it’s based on the specimen in the Ashmolean collection? What scale length did you make it? Most copies are scaled down from the original 740mm to 665 or sometimes 670mm.
It is indeed a great performance, the only thing I can not understand, is from which planet do you order your aquila strings? I had mine on my romantic guitar, and it only lasted about 2-3 months(o only didn't change them because I could not find them anywhere except for the internet).
The unwound Aquila nylgut strings do last a very long time and this instrument is strung entirely with unwound strings. I have found that Aquila wound strings don't last very long at all, the windings seem very soft and I chew through them very quickly - sometimes in a couple of weeks
I had the chance to do an interview with mr sanders in his class and he let me play one of his guitars. very nice and friendly guy.
One of the best classical guitar teachers/players in the country & the world!
Not only is this a musical instrument, it's a piece of art.
Fantastic playing, fantastic instrument! I wish baroque guitars were more widely used and available.
Same!
I certainly enjoyed the performance and the information, strings, tuning, etc about the instrument. Would love to see more baroque guitars on GSI.
great performance and thanks for that introduction to the instrument - very informative
Very sensitive playing with spacious phrasing. Nice instrument with well-balanced registers. Double congratulations. :-)

LOVELY USE OF ALL FINGURES PLAYING, BRAVO. BEAUTIFUL MUSIC.
Always a great piece, sound's a great instrument, your playing and the luithier also that's art
Nice introduction video. Well deserved to a kind of forgotten instrument.
Nice music, playing and explanation.
Coming to Greybull, Wyoming. How lucky can we get!
Well done!
Yes!
this is me!
ADONBILIVIT, MAN
Nice sounding guitar! And nice playing, too. :-)
I really enjoyed your explanations at the end of the video. Thankyou.

puede que no sea necesaria

Excelente la españoleta
El compositor español es gaspar sanz y el título españoleta
5:50 who is the composer he’s mentioning? I tried turning on the closed captions to see the spelling but it said “Francisco get aroused” 😮
Francisco Guerau
!!!!
Good playing, the new strings might explain how noisy this instrument is.
So good I think baruqe guitar is better Frome classical guitar I like it
The audio recording is too 'hot' i.e. too much clipping and popping over too little volume.
the popping sounds fantastic too !
Very impressive , but does it djent?
a very boring composition
