Bouzouki

Not interested in trades. A bit of an unusual bouzouki this one

I bought it from Tomman as an octave bouzouki (see screenshot in last slide) and had the nut filed down to accommodate unison tuning. It has five strings, although I don’t currently play it with the thickest (fifth) string. It can be set up to use all five.

I brought it to a luthier to get set up, and we discovered that the intonation was quite far out. To correct this, we had to move the bridge back, which involved filing away part of the hole that the pickup wire runs through (as seen in pictures).

It also sustained a pretty significant crack when my little cousin was playing it.

All that said, it plays great and sounds great, and was set up to play perfectly. I’ve really enjoyed playing it, but I’m looking to upgrade, hence the sale. Sounds great through a PA and includes a hard case.

I originally bought it for €1,100, see last screenshot for Thomann screenshot. Willing to travel
