My Irish Bouzouki, (a Fender) has 24 frets counting nut and the fingerboard is 20 inches long from the nut down to the sound hole. Body depth is 3 1/8 inches and width from left to right sides are 13 1/2 inches. Also it is an Acoustic Electric with great sound and projection with or without the amp. I bought it many years age and it is my primary instrument along with a tenor guitar (4-string) and a 5 string Viola and I toot my own horn on a Irish Whistle. "Player of many, master of none" but still having fun at age 79 and counting. Skip a day of practice and it's a day lost at getting better. Get up an hour earlier if needed on set days for practice but never go several days without. An old mans thoughts.

Hi everyone - it's taken a long time, but I think I've finally got to grips with all of the technology, including the software and hardware, to make better videos - so more will be coming to KZitem! I'm also offering online lessons on the bouzouki if anybody's interested. Check out my latest video for more information: kzitem.info/news/bejne/sGai1H2noJh0iaw

Hi Decky! Thanks so much. I'd love to see more of these bouzouki videos. They were really helpful to me and the format you are teaching in here is great, and not like any other bouzouki videos I've seen on you tube. It really helped me connect the chords with the idea of counterpoint and gave me a good base to bring to a session. I'd really love to see more videos of different tunes but in the same format(basic/advanced with counterpoint melody). Thanks again.

Jockel Jo Here he uses GDAD tuning, more common for bouzouki than on OM (for which fiddle tuning is more common). If you already play mandolin you can tune it GDAE exactly as the mandolin, but an octave lower!

Do you have the TAB? I can read guitar TAB and it would be a lot easier than replaying, I think.

If that's an irish bazouki as described in the video title, I'm a chinaman. It's a mandolin, and whilst I agree they can be tuned the same, they are not the same instrument. I play a bazouki. I can't play a mandolin, its too bloody small for my fingers! That said, thanks for the instruction.

It's an octave mandolin, AKA an Irish bouzouki - the Greek bouzouki has a longer neck.

@@conormaloney126 Terminology can be confusing. My understanding is that an octave mandolin (which is what I play and is what I would call the instrument in the video) generally has a shorter scale length, and all pairs of string are tuned in unison, while an Irish or "Celtic" bouzouki has a much longer scale, and the lower two pairs of strings are tuned in octaves, like a Greek bouzouki. But I guess the nomenclature varies from here in America to various parts of Europe. I've seen videos of Nordic musicians, for instance, where what they are playing is called a "mandola" in the credits, but is clearly what I would call an octave mandolin.
