The zouk is now complete and here is the final video, including a demo by its owner, Adrian, filmed when he came to collect the instrument. You see some decent photos on my blog.# Hope you like it. Cheers Gary |

Excellent end to an excellent series Gary - thanks! Good to see an appreciative new owner having fun too.

A lovely looking and sounding instrument - no wonder the new owner had such a big grin on his face.   Mark |

Congratulations, Gary on a great set of build videos culminating in a great looking, and sounding, instrument. Adrian has got to be pleased with that!

A great way to showcase your bouzouki, Gary! I love the video with the new owner playing gleefully - and the sound is wonderful. In fact, I noticed this morning a used bouzouki up for sale on ebay, due to taking delivery of a new Nava bouzouki....I guess it's the same fella, unless you've made two of these recently Gary  |

Thanks for the great comments!  Well, here is a great family group photo that Adrian sent me. Three Navas together; not often seen! From left to right; tenor mandola, octave mandolin and the bouzouki. Really pleased to see them altogether, cheers Adrian!  |
