I've been building Irish bouzoukis/ citterns/ octave mandolins for about fifteen years now as demand for them has steadily grown. In the past I've made many with a guitar type
pin bridge set up, that being the base of my experience, and still like
that sound a lot. These are very variable instruments and I
generally design to order.
