Product Details
Our four course, eight string, Greek Bouzouki is a beautiful instrument with a rich history. The fingering is the same as the higher four strings on a guitar, and the same as the fingering on a ukulele. The tuning, however, is different, the recommended being Cc Ff aa dd.
The Bouzouki dates back to Byzantine times, and in Greece, was known as a pandura. It later became known as a tambouras, and around the 19th century evolved into the modern day bouzouki. In the 1960's, the Irish Bouzouki became popular in traditional Celtic music. The Irish Bouzouki looks a little more like a mandolin, and it is tuned differently than this traditional Greek counterpart.

- European spruce soundboard
- Sheesham fingerboard
- Mahogany neck
- Soundboard, fingerboard, and headstock have beautifully designed custom lacewood inlays
- The scale length is 26.25" (667mm)
- There is a truss rod in neck
- Includes a padded gig bag
