Tuning the bouzouki

[Reggae1942]

It appears easier to play fast passages on the Greek Bouzouki rather than the Octave Mandolin for instance?

[dvdsmlprstylr]

Do the thinner strings go above the thicker strings?

[Archon33]

The typical style for tuning 8 string bouzouki is

Doh = CC (top)

Fa = FF

La = AA

Re = DD (bottom)

But there are many other styles of tuning

eg.

6 string is tuned D A D
