Hi Chris,
I'm new to baroque guitar too and with the same questions you have about stringing. The discussions you started have been very useful to me.
I think Sanz sound better without the "bordones" too.
I've found here in this network very good example of Sanz layed without bordones. Go to Xavier's profile and check his website. There are some great recordings there and you can find more on youtube (only audio).
He uses the high g on the third too in the capricho arpeado and sounds great.
Nice mandore music! You might be interested in this live recording I did for the BBC of mandore music from Skene ms. It is on my ning lute group page:

I'm not sure if you can hear it without joining. Anyway, it is track 12 on the mp3 player on my My Page.

But I know that that is a lot to ask in the cruel world of early instruments. ;)
