Actually, it looked nicer, with the rose carved directly in the soundboard, without any parchment layer; the body shape was also a little bit different (less "rounded"), as far as I can remember; alternating dark and light stripes on the back.

The instrument was well made, comfortable neck, seemed quite responsive with decent sound, but not very loud (although it was a bit noisy at the exhibition, so I hesitate to judge the sound quality).

<p>Hi Michael</p>
<p>It is nearly a year now and I am wondering if you have found a renaissance guitar?</p>
<p>I myself am looking for an early guitar. I would value any comments you may have on the</p>
<p>instruments you considered and the one you settled on. The early music shop one does</p>
<p>look very nice but the sound ...?</p>
<p>Thanks very much</p>

<p>Hello Michael, for a bit more (ca. 1200 GBP/1500 Euros) you can have a hand made instrument by Alexander Hopkins: <a href="http://www.hopkinslutes.com/index.html" target="_blank">http://www.hopkinslutes.com/index.html</a> and probably other makers, if you shop around. Try Marcos Kaiser Mori.</p>
