Short Scale Bouzouki
This is a short scale bouzouki/octave mandola. Made from flamed maple with a European spruce top, this instrument has an excellent mid range and a nice brightness which helps to cut through a busy session.
I’ve tried some new things on this one such as notching finger-braces into the main x-brace under the top. This is something a lot of the modern guitar makers are doing in order to increase the bass presence.
I’ve also tried a new finish, this one has a satin oil finish all over, its a very natural looking finish while also being very protective and less susceptible to scratches and dings as a French polished finish would be.
If you have any questions, please ask them!
