Lute Guitar : Possibly more of a guitar with a slight shape of lute.

It really doesn't sound much different from a regular Classical Guitar, I've been struggling with how can I hold it or grip it due to its shape, After several different ways and chairs and sits, I even sat on my bed which worked best as the body rested along side very much like Dionisio Aguado's cradle for guitar before the foot stool was introduced. I am now using a guitar strap as it comes with a button for it. I played some music for classical guitar like a total beginner but I will get there, more than practicing playing I need to practice how to adapt it to my body. Overall after 10 years of longing and 4 years of saving money for it, it's OK... But I will always regard it as a Classical Guitar with a shape of a lute...
