A brilliant instrument for an affordable price
As an avid guitar/mandolin player, this is the first bouzouki I've owned and I could not be more impressed.
Firstly, for its price, the instrument looks and sounds great. The darker wood/varnish body, with a complimentary lighter binding, plus a rosewood fretboard is exactly what I was looking for. Especially in comparison to the majority of other brighter wood bouzouki models on offer. Secondly, this model came strung in unison tuning and not octave so there will be no need for any potential bridge modifications if changing between the two. The strings looked new, the action felt great out of the box and I have experienced no string buzz on any frets whilst playing. Lastly, the electronics, although simple, work well and is a nice addition for any gigging musicians.
Overall, I am very impressed with both the bouzouki model and Thomman as a whole (I ordered from the UK, received the instrument 4 days later and experienced no problems).

First Bouzouki
This was my first purchase through Thomann and my first Bouzouki. It came very carefully packaged and almost ready to go out of the box. Only needed a minor set up and I was good to go. The construction is solid, and overall its a good instrument at this price point. I live in Atlantic Canada and you cannot find a bouzouki of this quality for under $1000CAD, so I am very happy with this one! Thanks, Thomann!
