The evolution of the guitar achieved a new phase during the sixteenth century, as documentary evidence can confirm. The instrument passed through transformations.during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, and some clear characteristics of the guitar, became established. By the sixteenth century, the two important instruments that played a crucial role in the evolution of the modern guitar were the vihuela and the four-course guitar.During the Renaissance, outside of Spain and Italy, the term vihuela was used in

conjunction with other guitar-related terms as a general way to indicate instruments

displaying fingerboards and necks.19 The vihuelas were then specified by the particular

way in which they were played. In this sense, there were three types of vihuelas: vihuela

da mano, vihuela de arco, and vihuela de peñola (or vihuela de púa), respectively played

with the fingers, the bow, and the plectrum. Gradually, the da mano version became

favored over the others.20

Although substantial literature for the instrument can be found, only two actual

vihuelas have been preserved. One is in Quito in the church of the Compañia de Jésus,

and would have been used by Santa Mariana de Jésus who would play it and sing praises

to Christ. The other is in Paris, as an item of the collection of the Musée JaquemartAndré. In spite of the lack of vihuela specimens, there are several pictorial examples of

the actual instrument that are extremely useful to the understanding of the instrument and

its historical context. From these examples, the first ones to reveal a guitar-like

instrument possessing an “eight-like” shape, a neck, and a flat back date from the

fifteenth century.
