Content moved from Vihuela "proper" edit
I hope this makes sence to everyone, and will not be seen as too-Bold an action. Cyclocifra 06:14, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
Relevance of the Note? edit
"In the browser text based RPG game, Kingdom Of Loathing, the item "Evil Vihuela" has the description:
"According to Wikipedia, "the Mexican vihuela is a small, deep-bodied rhythm guitar built along the same lines as the guitarrón. Its five nylon strings are tuned like the first five of a guitar, but with the fourth and fifth tuned up an octave, ukulele-style." So there you go.
Oh, by the way, this one is evil."
The bulk of the description is taken from this page."
How is this important to the article itself? I think this is worthless and needs to be deleted.210.133.127.14 (talk) 05:07, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
I got rid of the stupid "Kingdom of Loathing" reference. Ridiculous! I also wrote in the tuning but did not go any further. A better job could be done. Also, someone who plays and loves this instrument could expand on this article. Gingermint (talk) 04:54, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
Frets? edit
I've noticed on Youtube that vihuelas tend to have 6 frets, with rare ones having 7, but I've seen one for sale on EBay with only 4. Some discussion of this would be useful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.151.229.107 (talk) 10:51, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
