About:

The lute was widely played during the Middle Ages and reached its apogee in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries before falling out of fashion by the mid eighteenth century.

During its long period of popularity the lute underwent a number of changes, the most noticeable of these was the the addition of more strings in order to meet the different musical requirements of each period.In the early 1500's a typical lute would have had eleven strings, in 1620 nineteen and by the baroque period twenty, twenty-two or twenty-four strings. Each model of lute was made in different sizes, alto, tenor ,bass,etc.

So today's lutemaker is obliged to make a wide range of instruments.
