Yo, degrees in classical performance and music composition (basically a degree in western music theory), worked as a freelancer/touring musician/ for about 7 years before changing careers. Music is now my "serious" hobby, but I have mad respect and empathy for those still making their living in the arts. This shit sucks.
Not quite, but close! It's tuned like a lute, but transposed down a fourth. From lowest to highest, the notes are A-D-G-C-E-A-D. Only some bass viols have the low A string, most just have 6 starting from D.

Cello and viola da gamba are my two main instruments.
