What woods is your instrument made of? I am interesting in ordering a similar one from Fylde.
You have a lovely fluent playing style. It is very nice to listen to.

Ya le pegas ya!

@ganjaking187 I have one I bought from Lark In The Morning, around $400.00, it doesn't have the bright sound nor the drive of the Fylde, but I corrected that by installing Fishman electronics for another $250.00.

@retromolarpad Actually, as it only has 5 course (for 10 strings) it's a guitar shaped modern cittern - but people will call anything anything these days :)
-
Please can you send me a mp3 of that in a better quality or make an other video in a better quality

@retromolarpad ..it is a bouzouki or Cittern...which has 5 courses .Strung as a bouzouki with a jumbo guitar type body.lI have both, mine has the name Gazuki!

@magnetite66 it's an tune from west Asturies (in the north of spain). It's a bagpipe tune called Muiñeira de Rengos
Lovely playing, and a beautiful instrument.
Can you please tell me, is the 5th course a low C? From watching(from my desk @ work), I'm guessing that the rest of the 'Zook is in GDAD.... ?
Anyway, thanks for posting the clip....

Thanks pulgargrind. The tuning is low to high: Dgdad. You were nearly there;)

Man I'm just waiting on a new bouzouki being built for me at the moment, THAT sounds incredible.........I was hesitant about the low D, too much rattle? GREAT playing.

surprisingly, I've never had any problems with rattles or buzzes, although the action is reasonably low.

how is that a bouzouki? bouzouki's have 4 or 3 sets of strings, that is just a double stringed guitar.

yep, you're probably right, whatever...
