The instrument is called a theorbo.
You thought you were seducing me? Wrong, I am seducing you. Now listen to the power of these 12 finger chords!
If you get really good, you’ll be able to really shred like me.
This doesn’t look like a Theorbo to me. The original Title on metmuseum is “A Woman Playing the Theorbo-Lute and a Cavalier”. In German, the bass extension on this lute is called “Theorbierung”. So I think a Theorbo-Lute (a baroque lute with a theorbo-style bass extension) and a Theorbo (big boy with giraffe neck) are two distinct instruments.
A really cool instrument nonetheless with some features I haven’t seen before.
So anyway…
