Kenyon (kenyon1996, pp. 1999-200) gives a combined list of instruments based on the inventory of the duke and on the valuation of his possessions. The instruments would probably have been for the use of salaried musicians at his residence. Includes 2 guitars
Kenyon asserts that the violones would be violin family rather than vihuelas de arco.
