i cant help wondering why there arent more guizouki type bouzoukis
ie a bouzouki with a dreadnought style body.
for eg hathway makes a large body bouzouki, it sounds lovely,
and da faoite guitar bodied bouzoukis are loud enough for sessions.
with most bouzoukis, the only thing you hear when they are strummed in sessions is that top end crack crack crack. i dont even take my bouzouki to sessions, its a waste of time.
i’m contemplating converting a redundant dreadnought to bouzouki ( i’m aware of the string tension issue).
i think many bouzouki players would like to play bouzoukis with a more full bodied sound, although
i could be wrong here.
any thoughts?
