7 Course Renaissance Lute by François Louant (1985)
November 2, 2026For Sale
7-Course Renaissance Lute, Handmade in Belgium (1985), with Handmade Case
7-course Renaissance lute (13 strings) handmade in 1985 by François Louant of Ath, Belgium. It was made for me and was one of his early instruments. String length is 23.75 in (60 cm), overall length 31 in (79 cm). It was last played about three years ago and was in good playing order then. It is in excellent condition, with only a few small cosmetic scratches in the original stain on the back of the bowl. It comes with its own handmade case. It will need fresh strings, and I haven’t checked the tuning recently.
Local pickup preferred. I’m willing to deliver within a reasonable distance in Michigan, the surrounding states, and the Northeast.
