In the last 30 years, the Irish Bouzouki has come to the forefront of
the Celtic Music scene. Played in a variety of tunings, the pairs of
strings are often tuned A-D-G-C, and octave below the mandola. The deep,
rich voice of the Irish Bouzouki is perfect for accompaniment as well
as lead and solo work. Trinity CollegeŽ, with the introduction of its
TM-375 Irish Bouzouki, has answered the prayers of all the players who
have no other choice but an expensive, "boutique" instrument. The TM-375
offers the same quality, style and sound for far less cost. Every
TM-375 is fully shop-adjusted prior to shipment, and each is furnished
with a deluxe, hard shell case.
