The treatise discusses tablatures for viola da mano (most likely a vihuela or six-course guitar) and lute, fret position on these instruments, and construction rationale used by the instrument makers of the day. The treatise also confirms the strong links between the kingdoms of Naples and Spain during the 16th c. The edition is based on the only preserved copy, held at the British Library.
