McNeela Premium Irische Bouzouki (s)

“Love this instrument! It sounds wonderful!” - Nathaniel D.

The premium bouzouki is an Irish style, flat back bouzouki, with string pairs that are tuned in unison to GDAD.

This beautifully crafted instrument is made from carefully selected, quality tonewoods, and is built with a spruce body and mahogany back and sides.

All our Irish bouzoukis are built with a floating bridge, as this makes it easier for you to adjust the string height and fine-tune its tone.

And a floating bridge is one of the things that gives a bouzouki its distinctive, biting sound.

Whether the music you’re playing requires you to strum chords or pluck tunes, this versatile and characteristically Irish bouzouki produces the rich, resonant sounds you want for Irish trad.

Irish Vs Greek Bouzoukis

There are 3 main differences between Irish and Greek bouzoukis: the shape of the body, the number of frets, and the tuning. Irish bouzoukis have a shallow, flat back with just 24 frets, and pairs of strings tuned in unison to GDAE or GDAD. Greek ones have a larger, rounded back, around 27 frets, and are tuned to octave intervals with the standard tuning of CFAD.

That Distinctive Irish Sound

Our Irish bouzouki string pairs are tuned in unison to GDAD, which is the most common tuning for Irish trad. The combination of this particular tuning, the flat back and floating bridge give this bouzouki its distinctive tone and sound.

Style & Durability

This Irish bouzouki is crafted from carefully selected, quality materials, and features a spruce top with saplewood backs and sides, and a rosewood fingerboard with dot inlay. Making it as stylish to behold as it is a pleasure to play.
