Guitar, ca. 1695–99, Hamburg, Germany, German, Wood, ivory, ebony, Chordophone-Lute-plucked-fretted, Joachim Tielke (German, 1641–1719), The Baroque guitar is similar in shape and body to earlier guitars, but is typified by five double courses of strings (which appeared as early as the late fifteenth century). From about 1600 until the mid-eighteenth century, its popularity supplanted both the four-course guitar and the six- or seven-course vihuela
