He invented this guitar type in collaboration with another Swedish guitarist, professor Per-Olof Johnson in the late sixties - early seventies. Söllscher is today guitar proefessor in Malmö, Sweden, where he once studied for Johnson.

The 1:st piece is called: Fantasie in D Minor, S.L. Weiss. The 2:nd is the ciaconna also Weiss of course. Dont try to play it on a 6-string though cause it doesn't have the deep base needed för this type of sound.

Like a standard classical guitar with extra basses and a capo on the 3rd fret: so from low to high Bb1 C2 D2 Eb2 F2 G2 C3 F3 Bb3 D4 G4 - unless you’re playing Renaissance lute music, in which case the 3rd string will be a semitone lower.

That's an opinion, and you are certainly entitled to have one. However, I would like to educate the community about the birth of this instrument. The instrument in question is an eleven-stringed alto guitar made by professor Georg Bolin (1912-1993) in Stockholm, Sweden. He invented this guitar type in collaboration with a Swedish guitarist, professor Per-Olof Johnson in the late sixties - early seventies. Johnson, already an accomplished guitarist wanted to go in-depth to the lute music from the renaissance, but he soon realised that you basically had the options of transcribing the music for a six stringed instrument, which of course already had been done, but to the cost of losing a great part of the music due to the lesser number of strings on the "normal" guitar. The other option was what you suggested; learning to play the lute and play the original music, as it was once composed. Johnson did exactly that; he studied the lute for over a year. However, he soon realised that it wasn't possible to combine the two instruments, the guitar and the lute. The double strings of the lute required the player to play with the flesh, as opposed to the nails. As you all know, most classical guitar players use the nails and herein lies the problem. You can't do both. To solve this dilemma, Johnson asked Georg Bolin if he could make a guitar with the same tonal range as the lute. This would make it possible for the musician to use the playing technique from the guitar - as well as the guitar's dynamic qualities - AND to play the music like it was once written. Presto, the alto guitar was born. Okay, according to Bolin it took eleven years of development until the alto guitar as we know it today was finished. Personally I think this is an achievement that calls for a great deal of respect instead of dismissal. This is an example of how creative people has driven the development forward thru mankind and personally I believe that the composers of yesterday would approve. IMHO you just need to listen to Göran Söllscher's performance..! Respectfully, Peter Bengtsson, master luthier

@@wernerretief4569 Fair enough, I wouldn't argue about difference in taste. I just thought that your comment was a bit intolerant, since I greatly appreciate the alto guitar and the two people behind it, as well as Göran Söllscher of course. It is also a fact that this guitar type has inspired many guitarists in Europe- particularly in Scandinavia - to compose contemporary music for the alto guitar, so I'd say the alto guitar has a rightfully earned place in the history of musical instruments. In 1982, I bought my first vinyl album with Göran Söllscher. The main reson for this choice was that the A side contain Stanley Myers "Cavatina". I also discovered that the rest of the music on the A side was lovely and masterfully executed by Söllscher. On the B side, however was Bach's suite no. 4 for lute, BWV 1006a and hearing the Prelude played on an alto guitar for the first time was for me like a punch in solar plexus. I had never heard such dynamics paired with the clarity and richness in overtones from a guitar before - and this was really a turning point in my life. I decided there and then that I wanted to become a guitar maker. To cut a long story short I contacted Bolin and was eventually given the opportunity to study guitar making for him for four years until I later became his assistent for an additionally six years. For me, there is nothing monstrous about the alto guitar. On the contrary, it has a unique tonal quality that is very hard to achieve with a six stringed guitar. During the forty plus years that has gone by since the event I described, I have made a number of guitars, including a few alto guitars and to me, Georg Bolin's creation is nothing short of a masterpiece, from a design point of view as well as musically. Having said this, I wouldn't dream of persuading you to abandon your event horizon. Instead, perhaps we can agree on the notion that the world is big enough for both stand points to coexist? By the way, Göran Söllscher has his own KZitem channel where he post videos on a weekly basis; www.youtube.com/@goransollscher1730 Kind regards, Peter
