	Rebec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The rebec comes in a variety of slightly different forms, but is typically pear-shaped, with no clear division between the body and neck of the instrument (both being carved from the same single piece of wood).
		The rebec originally came in two basic forms: a wider instrument played under the chin; and a relatively narrower instrument which was rested on the player's thigh and played with the bow in an underhand position, like the viol.
		His rebec was damaged by a mob that accused him of murder, but it was repaired by one of the monks and returned to him at the end of the story.

		The pear-shaped rebec on the ivory casket, although like all rebecs it had no separate neck, was elongated to form one, and terminated in a lozenge-shaped head all in one piece with back and neck, the soundboard being cut to the same outline and glued to the back.
		The boat-shaped rebec survived as the sordino or pochette,5 an instrument widely used by dancing masters until the I 9th centuiy, when it was abandoned for the kit, a diminutive violin.
		The 15th- and 16th-century rebec or gel ge, as the pear-shaped variety was called in Germany (gigue in France), is figured by Sebastian Virdung;f there were three strings tuned to G, D, A, and it had a finger-board cut in one piece with the sound-board in some cases and forming a step.

	THE REBEC PAGE
		In its early history, the rebec was seen as a court instrument (thus several depictions of Kings playing the instrument, or minstrels playing for the biblical King David).
		The rebec was played up at the chin or chest, with the instrument held horizontally in the left hand, while the right hand drew the bow laterally across the strings.
		They also sell rebecs by fellows named James Bisgood (a treble and a tenor version- see and hear his at the Falsobordone website) and Goerge (a 3 string treble and a 4 string alto), and also carry Marco Salerno rebecs, which are very nice.

	The History of the Violin by William Bartruff - Violin Maker
		As a result of the European crusades, an instrument called the rebec based on the rabab appears first in Spain during the middle 11th century.
		The rebec differs from the rabab only slightly: The rebec has three strings instead of two, the body is made of wood rather than gourd, and the instrument is placed at the shoulder to play rather than on the lap.
		And for the first time, the c holes of the rebec and vielle are replaced with the now familiar f holes used on modern violins.

		The first and, so far, only rebec making chapter of my life spanned 1979 to 1984 (exact dates questionable: it was a long time ago!) I discovered music in my mid-teens.
		In the twenty or so years since the instrument was finished, I have noticed that the join between the two halves of the soundboard has parted very slightly in the region around the rose.
		Maybe this was sometimes the case with the treble rebec held this way when the player was seated but held under the chin (or armpit as I prefer) when stood up.
