It depends on your luck. There are bards in my guild who have been killing Maestros for years who still don't have that lute because as far as I know he's only dropped two for us in... uh... let's just say, maybe seven months. One of them rotted because I was the only bard who logged in but my guy was still at the Seb zonein from a Trak raid the day before, and the other one I got a few weeks later because Deajay was super nice and passed on it for me because I'd tracked the mob for 6 hours that day (and, maybe also because he felt bad for me because I had watched a Maestro lute rot in guild chat a few weeks prior and was devastated)


The point being, it's entirely possible that there are bards in guilds that have only killed Maestro one time who have the lute, but there are also people like Deajay and apparently Zander who have been on this box for years and years and undoubtedly killed dozens of Maestros who still don't have it because it's a shockingly rare drop for being pretty much the only actual (non-quest) item this guy drops that's any good.
