I was asked by my friend Wilfried Welti to play Ukulele music on renaissance guitar (same tuning for both instruments, one being the grand mother of the other) so I did...

the instrument is double strung (exept first string) and fourth is on high G outside, on low G inside. The renaissance guitar is a little bit larger than baryton uke (55 cm string length) and very low string tension (about half tension than uke) Aquila strings, except fourth in carbon.
This instrument is made by on of the best lute makers : Stephen Murphy and is really top quality.
