Hi all - i was just curious if anyone knows why/how the term 'luthier' came to describe one who makes ukeuleles, guitars, violins, etc., even though few people are actually making lutes these days.
Is it as simple as the fact that 'luthier' sounds better than ukeleleier or some other tortured name?
Thank you in advance for satiating my curiosity!
