    Love In Vain is a great mandolin song. I just try to do a mix of chords and a little lead.

    Thanks Victor. I'd be very interested to talk with someone who really knows Greek Bouzoukis. My biggest complaint with the Sakis is the tinny rattling sound I get when I strum it. Unfortunately I...

    Re: Any Greek Bouzuki Players ?

    Just got a Sakis Bouzouki from Greece, and I hate to say it, but I'm not exactly blown away by it. $695 and it doesn't sound that impressive though it is comfortable. I'm seriously beginning to...
