I'm shocked to find that 'chitarrone' has been merged into 'theorbo' - I know that distinguishing the instruments has always been a matter of contention, but this does seem a bit drastic!
Oh well, I guess I'll wait for Lynda Sayce's book to be published (soon I hope) to find out the truth... Ndaisley 15:12, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps someone could find another diagramme showing the tuning? Those innumerbale ledger lines...! -- Mathiasroesel 15:24, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Lowest course, according to this diagramm is F, not G. It would be very handy if the creator used an F clef - leger lines are not that easy for most readers. I am also having trouble updoading this image in the Greek wikipedia; could someone give me a hand? Cheers -- Chrysalifourfour ( talk) 13:05, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
Concur with the clef comment above. Also, the clef symbol used in this diagram (and others, e.g. Lute) does not appear in the article on clefs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.126.64.99 ( talk) 23:08, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
The intro dives into a discourse on the etymology of the name, without ever explaining what the second set of strings is for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.147.122.14 ( talk) 02:17, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

A Theorbo is used in the Decca CD Janine Jansen, Vivaldi Four Seasons — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.136.29.223 ( talk) 20:43, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
Looking for the correct pronunciation of this, would be nice to have in this article. 98.189.15.158 ( talk) 20:50, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
Beneath the image at left in the section Origin and Development one reads: "The girl is playing a type of theorbo that combined two ranges of strings with separate peg boxes..." Is there any reason not to refer to the musician here as a woman? (Or are the male musicians all "boys"?)

There is another contemporary musician who plays the theorbo, Evangelina Mascardi. She has a wiki page and her performances and recordings are mentioned. You just need to include her and link to her wiki entry. 96.42.24.187 ( talk) 18:28, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
