Fair enough. I feel a bit better using my 5 course guitar to accompany 16th century rep knowing that the Diaz guitar exists :)<br />
So, would you hazard a guess at the earliest 5 course guitar?

Thanks folks!<br />
I understand the date of the diaz guitar places it in the late renaissance, but it certainly looks more like what most of us would call a baroque guitar today.

<p>Also, there are fragments of a four course guitar found in a ship wreck, but from ca. 1733 so not 'renaissance' in any way. There was an article about this in Lute News 131, October 2019.</p>

<p><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2078842271?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GiovanniSmit4courseguitars.jpg</a> There are apparently two surviving 4-course guitars but they date from the 1640s. They were made Giovanni Smit. One of them is illustrated in James Tyler's book The guitar and its music p.82. </p>
