A six-course lute typically has six pairs of strings, known as courses, which are usually tuned in unison or octaves. This means that there are a total of 12 strings on a six-course lute. Each course is generally played together, allowing for rich harmonic textures in the music.

How many strings does a Oud have?

The lute's strings are arranged in courses, usually of two strings each, though the highest-pitched course usually consists of only a single string, called the chanterelle. In later Baroque lutes 2 upper courses are single. The courses are numbered sequentially, counting from the highest pitched, so that the chanterelle is the first course, the next pair of strings is the second course, etc. Thus an 8-course Renaissance lute will usually have 15 strings, and a 13-course Baroque lute will have 24. The number of strings a lute has depends on the type of lute; it could have as few as eight or as many as thirty-five, with other possible variations. The links below might prove helpful.
