Introducing the exquisite Sheesham Travel Lute, a masterpiece crafted for the discerning musician. This lute features a body constructed from eleven solid sheesham staves, complemented by a sheesham neck and fingerboard. The peg box, also made of solid sheesham, is ingeniously attached at a 135-degree angle to minimize the instrument's depth. With tuning pegs and an end pin crafted from sheesham, and a soundboard made of European spruce, this lute promises a rich and resonant sound. The instrument is equipped with eight nylon frets and four sheesham frets, and the recommended 8-course tuning is G4, D4/D4, A3/A3, F3/F3, C4/C3, G3/G2, F3/F2, D3/D2. A padded gig bag is included for your convenience.

Historically, lutes have been strung with gut strings, but modern advancements have led to the use of precision-made nylon strings. The Roosebeck set of rectified nylon strings is renowned for its warm tone and lightly textured feel, while the silver-plated copper wound nylon bass strings deliver a warm, classical sound. The traditional Renaissance tuning is recommended for this set, ensuring an authentic musical experience. Elevate your musical journey with the Sheesham Travel Lute and experience the harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. Order now and let your music resonate with elegance.
