1) 1960s Zozef

The old Zozef is considered by many to be the best Greek Bouzouki maker of all time. Zozef bouzoukia are of the highest quality, are still preferred for live performances and are therefore highly sought after by many professionals. This instrument has recently had the 'figoura' changed and been serviced by Yiannis Karvounis to an excellent standard.
