This is a fun, cool-sounding instrument that just drips with 60s mojo. Introduced by Danelectro in 1961 and co-designed by legendary session guitar ace Vinnie Bell, the Bellzouki is an electric 12-string guitar inspired by the look and vibe of Greek and Turkish bouzoukis. Its groovy tone is perfect for psychedelic '60s flower power jams as well as rootsy rock and roll.
The condition is very good on this 1965 example and it plays and sounds great!!
