Fanfret Bouzouki

The back and sides of this guitar are handcrafted from curly mango and coconut. The neck is English walnut and coconut, with a mahogany core, to keep the weight low. The soundboard is crafted from Engelmann spruce and the fingerboard from ebony. Roger Bucknall is happiest when he has complete freedom to make what he feels is best. In this example, a good friend wanted an “unusual” instrument and this unique fan fret bouzouki, perhaps the only of its kind, was the result.
