Heck, I dunno what to call it. My new toy is (as those who were at the SWiGGLe a couple of weeks ago will remember) a guitar-bodied bouzouki, or bouzar, or gazuki.

The latter is what the guy I bought it off calls them - see http://www.gazuki.co.uk/ - apparently they're made to his spec in China and imported. Your choice of unison or octave pairs on the bottom two strings, and your choice of tuning (GDAD or GDAE).

Mine is GDAD unison, and I restrung with Elixir phosphor bronze (13/17/30/52) - and it sounds amazing.

If you mention my name when you buy one, I get a referral discount, which I'll share with you.
