Lutes available for hire
The Lute Society selection of hire instruments consists of 39 instruments, which are administered by James Cole. Contact James for availability and further details.
Please note, you must be a member of the lute society to hire most of these lutes. This does not apply to the "theatrical" lutes. We regret that because of the very high risk of loss or damage when lutes are sent by air freight, OVERSEAS MEMBERS can hire lutes ONLY if they can guarantee to both collect and return hire instruments travelling overland (using the Channel tunnel) or by sea ferry.
Some of these instruments are on long term loan to the society.
