TablEdit is a quirky program which will allow you to download or write your own tune, in the tuning of your own choice. I think you may find playing / tuning in GDAe (like a fiddle) would probably be the easiest tuning to learn. Good going - that you already read music and - most importantly are familiar (at least historically) with the string / tuning relationships in an instrument tuned in fifths (Violin family). To me, the possibilities haven't really been explored yet. Take your time with your new 'Zook' and enjoy the sounds you can make on it. He covers a TON of the basics in the first ten pages or so and then introduces you to both melody and accompaniement styles. Get a copy of John McGann's Octave Mandolin and Bouzouki book. if you don't have a teacher nearby or someone else who plays it can be a bit of a daunting exploration.Ī few questions and a suggestion - what is your musical background, what other instruments do you play, can you read music and are you familiar with TablEdit? For the suggestion - which may seem a bit overwhelming at first. There are several good sites which explore both left and right hand options but.

On Hans Speek's remarkable site, he explores some of the possiblilites and the reason for it (drones, linear melodies, adjacent harmonies etc). Normally, Irish or Celtic music of some sort will have a 'DAD' somewhere in the tuning. Th CFad tuning is ONE of the ways of tuning a Greek Bouzouki. First off - welcome to the world of mando family instruments.
