    Certainly not McDonald, Stuart, or Forster quality, but pretty awesome for the low cost.

    I wish I had input, but I've decided I'm neither player or builder. Good luck Garry.

    Garry I have a heiner bouzouki for sale. It's a large bodied bouzouki like on his website and pin bridge like a guitar. A serious animal!

    Here is a recent guitar shaped, Mandocello/bouzouki (or cittern or whatever you want to call it) that we finished recently from my shop. It is tuned C-G-D-A-E.
