Prices

These prices are for undecorated versions of the instruments. For decorative options and other modifications, it is best to contact me personally by email and ask for a quote, though prices for some decorations are listed below.

Prices are fixed in euros. The price list was updated on 10.9.2024

Prices that include the 25.5% VAT/ALV tax are for customers in the European Union. This tax does not apply to customers elsewhere in the world, but you may instead have to pay customs and/or taxes upon entry to your country, so you should expect to have to pay anything between the full taxed price and the taxless price in total.

Cases

Cases are not included in the prices quoted for the instruments. A hard case is however recommended for shipping, although I now make plywood crates for my instruments in addition to cases. I can take care of ordering the proper size and shape of case for your instrument, just choose a maker from this list, or if you know of another case maker, let me know too!

  • I now make cases. Starting at 500 € (vat excl.) for renaissance lutes, they are made of plywood reinforced with epoxy fiberglass composite, with foam interior and gray leathercloth exterior. Lightweight and strong, maybe boring looking but good fit.
  • Kingham MTM Cases, UK. High quality hard cases, lightweight construction, choice of colours for the inside and outside. Prices beginning at 530 € (vat excl.). Please let me know what colors you prefer.
  • MusiCover, Italy. Soft padded cases, not suitable for shipping, and I wouldn't dare keep my lute in one, but some do.
  • IKA Hard Case. Fiberglass cases, light-weight but strong, good for theorbos. Prices around 900 € (vat excl.).
