Sawchyn Arch-Top Irish Bouzouki

This instrument is absolutely lovely and would make a fine addition to any players arsenal.  The arch-top nature provides ample volume and clarity with minimal right-hand effort.  It's melody, counter-melody and chording voices are all fantastic.  The scale takes it into the Irish Bouzouki relm, and when I've played it I've treated it as such. 

The spruce and maple combo are tried and true for great tone, and this instrument is no exception.  The action is low and without buzz, and plays great (and in tune) all the way up to the neck.  Capo on the 10th and it plays great!  If you want it to play differently it has a truss rod and adjustable bridge.  

The instrument comes with a TKL hardcase with red velvet lining.  

Home trial is available on this instrument.
