European made Irish Bouzouki with fitted hard case - *SOLD* £120 NW Wilts / W Berks

[Cat Burrito]

I bought this brand new for £230 a couple of years ago for a fun band playing 80s Alternative on folk instruments. I have used it for a few songs at a couple of gigs but quickly learnt that taking 5 instruments per band member to a gig was more effort than it is worth. It is spent most of it's life in the hard case that I bought for it and that is included in the sale.

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's pretty much immaculate. The specs are;

 

Irish Bouzouki

Solid spruce top

Flat, solid maple back

Maple sides

Maple neck

Acacia fingerboard

Scale length: 66 cm

Tuning: Gg - dd' - aa - e'e'

Stringing: D'Addario J81

Made in Europe

 

No silly logo on the headstock and it can be tuned the Irish way, the Greek way or like a guitar (or 4 strings of one). Sounds a bit like a 12 string, if you have never encountered one.

 

Check my feedback for proof that I have no previous convictions! I am around Swindon / Newbury area and don't mind meeting off the M4 or similar depending on how much of a stretch it is. Thanks for looking.

I've passed this to the band leader in my Irish band. He's not too far from you, in Oxford. I'll let you know.

Oh cool, thank you. Fingers crossed.

Sorry, he didn't bite. He likes the look of it very much but is potless right now

Tempted, probably should wait a bit as a run of gigs coming up soon and will have more ££.

 

I'm west of Cardiff... would Aust services be practical?

Potentially, yes. That's Bristol so an hour away. Send me a direct message if you are interested.

Won't be until July...

I'll keep the listing live in case you change your mind but it's all non-urgent so just let me know whenever you are ready.

Hmmm our vocalist just dropped £1400 on s mixer and hinted that  I need a new pa amp... plus ms. S. didn’t seem to impressed when I tried to explain what a bouzouki is over lunch.

 

Do keep the listing live but I may well go for it.

Tempting, but too far for me.
