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).
