Irish Bouzouki

Post by John J » Sat Feb 11, 2017 6:07 pm

Finished the bouzouki. Has a nice sound. I have to do some fine tuning in the set up. It's actually quite loud. I have to learn to play a little something and then I'll post a clip.

Details:
Walnut back and sides
Figured redwood top
Mahogany/walnut/maple neck
Walnut head plate
Mango rosette
Ebony fretboard
Maple bindings
Walnut/maple/Rosewood bridge
Tru Oil finish

Very nice. I still haven't had time to learn on the one I built.

Excellent John,
Very attractive instrument and if you have such a one, you must learn to play!
