Thread Name: Irish Bouzouki on a Greek instrument
Subject: RE: Irish Bouzouki on a Greek instrument
Maybe we'd do better to talk about flatback bouzoukis as we do flatback mandolins, since that's the main difference, along with sturdier construction. (Do we treat our instruments more roughly than Greek musicians do? I wouldn't feel safe with a Greek bouzouki in a crowded pub.) I've never come across bluegrass bouzouki, but I assume it's around somewhere.
