NGD: Bozo
This beautiful Bozo arrived on Monday. It is a unique guitar with incredible sound. The nut width is over 2 inches! Very fun to play. I have some Tomastik Plectrum strings arriving today which I believe will be perfect for this guitar.
An excellent companion to my Foley. |

That’s really lovely - it’s got that old-school hand-made vibe which you just don’t see much anymore, but I find particularly nice - and a 2” wide nut? That’s really unusual -

Thanks! The nut width was definitely intimidating, but it is actually very comfortable.

It that an original Bozo? I recently just found out about Kotke playing one.

Cool looking guitar!
I take it Bozo is the luthier's name because who on Earth would choose the name Bozo for their guitar brand? |

My favorite guitar is a 60s Gibson f25 folksinger. That had a 2in nut and flat board. One of the best guitars to play. But that is a fantastic looking guitar. Super unique looking.

What size is this guitar - how wide across the lower bout? I think most Bozo guitars I’ve seen before were pretty big, this looks smaller to me. Cool guitar!

I understand it is pronounce "Bo-zshow." The luthier was Bozo Podunavac.

Apparently the original owner challenged Bozo to build a steel string guitar that sounded as good as a classical guitar. This guitar was the result. A classical guitar with steel strings.
