2009 NKForster Guitars Guitar Bouzouki - 8 string guitar bouzouki, 4 course Acoustic Guitar/Bouzouki

Nigel Forster has hit a homerun with this Guitar Bouzouki! The tone is simply magical and had us all smiling from ear to ear. Nigel has taken his 15 years experience with Stefan Sobell and expanded on it finding his own voice for his instruments. Guitar players will find the Bouzouki easy to learn and irresistibly fun to play. It is often tuned to GDAD or GDAE, etc. In no time you'll be adding this wonderful voice to your solo and group work.But make no mistake this is a pro level instrument so if you are a serious Bouzouki player this is for you as well. Just listen to the sound clips and treat yourself to a little joy in these troubling times.

Dream Guitars Player's Review:
"What an amazing color this Forster Bouzouki has. Based in England Nigel is immersed in the Celtic music world and know how to make an instrument fit for traditional music. This is a worldclass Bouzouki in every way. I also encourage any guitarist to consider adding this easy-to-play double course instrument into your arsenal. I guarantee it will make you smile every time you pick it up!" - Paul Heumiller

"This instrument is a wonderful hybrid between an octave mandolin and a guitar which results in a much fuller and more lush, focused sound than either are capable of. I enjoyed spending some time on this one." - Al Petteway
