This is a flat-top bouzouki with a guitar-style pinned bridge. The body in chechen (metopium brownii), a fine dense Mexican hardwood similar to the best rosewood. The top is old-growth Sitka spruce from Alaska.

Scale length is like a guitar (648 mm), tuned in unison pairs. As you might expect from the construction, the sound is more guitar-like than most arch-top bouzoukis, producing a rich, round, balanced tone.

Construction features include the usual user-friendly bolt-on neck with Martin-style X bracing in the top. The neck has a modern 2-way adjustable truss rod.

Decoration includes gold mother-of-pearl Celtic knot inlays with matching chechen bridge and head veneer. Gold mini-tuners with small plastic buttons are light weight, and complement the gold pearl for a rich brown-and-bold look. Finish is satin gel varnish.

This is a great instrument for any style.
