Number 88
This is a bouzouki I made on commission for Andrew Shoemaker
of Denver.
The body is "asian ebony" (not true ebony!) with a red
spruce top. I used this wood also for the head veneer
and pick guard. Gold hardware and ebony bindings with
white veneer edges complete the brown-black-gold color
scheme. There is a McIntryre pickup installed.
It has all my standard features (zero fret, neck extension
over body, adjustable bolt-on neck). Andrew likes it.
The sound is crisp with good sustain.
