"I tried the Le Luth Doré® 8c Renaissance Lute, the Dowland model, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and aesthetics of this well built instrument with its back in flamed maple and its beautiful satin oil varnish color; this lute is easy to play, the response of the strings are very pleasant and the chanterelle is generous and well balanced. My overall impression is very positive, although I would have liked to see and also try the Beginner model."
