Just bought this a couple of days ago in Istanbul. When I aranged the trip I'd hoped to be able to buy one, and I'm really pleased I managed it. It's not great quality, but pretty cheap, and not a piece of tourist souvenir tat..it does play pretty well (shame I don't!). All handmade, solid woods, tied gut frets with microtonal spacing..7 strings arranged in 3 courses. For less than $100 including a gig bag, I had to have it.....bring on the dancing girls....
quarter notes? uh oh.
nice piece for the dough, though.

Somebody gave me one of these recently (and the bag) to refurbish so I think I might be onto you about re-stringing it now that you are the expert!
