Overview
A stave built bowl body gives this Roosebeck bouzouki its rounded shape, with a European spruce soundboard above and a mahogany neck. Lacewood inlays decorate the soundboard, fingerboard and headstock.
Guitar and ukulele players can transfer their fingering, since the higher courses match the upper strings of a guitar. The tuning is different, and the listing offers a recommendation. Case details are limited to the bag.
Who it's for
For a stringed-instrument player who wants to explore Greek folk sounds with familiar fingering on a decorative body. A buyer expecting guitar tuning will need to retune.
Pros and cons
- Gig bag included
- Clip-on tuner included
- Different tuning from guitar
- Soft bag, not hard case
- Spec sheet lists wrong instrument
Performance notes
The spruce soundboard drives the bowl body, and doubled courses give a bright, ringing shimmer. Fingering matches the upper strings of a guitar, but the recommended tuning places the courses differently.
