Here is a presentation of the new instrument i build, a greek baglamas. Baglamas is a very short scale bouzouki used mostly for 'rembetiko' music. The woods i used are, Body- white limba, top- german spruce, neck-maple with ebony, and fretboard- ebony and here is the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeUgim_f-_I&feature=plcp

That's very interesting, I've never seen one before. Interesting sound. So is the back one piece? I'm curious to how it was made, was it carved like a bowl? Nice work!
