Here you will find a small but exquisite selection of stringed instruments.
Each is built, according to my specifications, by a traditional European manufacturer
who has over 50 years of experience creating musical instruments.
All instruments are unique in their design and craftsmanship
and are exclusively available from me.
Some accessories, like the Piezo-Pickups for the mandolins,
have been developed exclusively for Celtic Star.
If your purchasing decision is ruled by your heart, you will be rewarded with
a musical instrument far beyond the mainstream.

The Irish Bouzouki is a relatively recent additon to the tradition of Celtic Folk Music.
It has become extremely popular and is by now an absolute must in every band playing in the Celtic style.

I´m very pleased to present my new Celtic-Star Edition

"Ancient Times"

...after nearly two years of development.

This eyecatching Irish Bouzouki features a selected solid spruce top finished in high-gloss antique finish with an amazing soundhole rosette according to a celtic ornament and a beautiful marquetry around
the sound hole. The lacquer is normally chosen for varnishing Violins.
The gently bowled body is truly unique - the welcome side effect
is a warm and full sound, relating to an excellent handling on stage!
This features you´ll find on no other Irish Bouzouki!!

Body and neck are made from European maple, finished in mahogany.
The neck features an integrated adjustable truss rod.

All the woods chosen from economic European forestry and used usually only for Violin making!

The fingerboard is made from rosewood.
The scale length measures 660 mm with 23 frets.

The bridge is made from masaranduba and features an intergrated Piezo-Pickup, which has been developed especially for these instruments. Meanwhile often been copied...

An integrated 3-band EQ-system is purchased from the same maker
who supplies these systems to the manufacturers of
Segovia and Garrisson guitars.

You´ll also find gold plated and smooth working machineheads from Yamaha supplier!

Custom tailpiece made from massive(!) brass with a wider string spacing for a straight guiding over the
bridge (excellent sustain...no slipping strings!!).

This outstanding instrument is manufactured completely from solid wood.
Customary tuning is done in G-D-A-E

The Celtic-Star "Ancient Times" Bouzouki is an impressive instrument
and stands with pride beside instruments several times more expensive!!

Inclusive Hardcase

Please take note:

I always do the settings individual for each single instrument.
Satisfaction guaranteed!
This is only one of the reasons why you should buy from a member
with business account.

May I trouble you to have a look on my eBay-feedbacks ;-)

Developing these instruments was a joyful experience and I hope that you may
feel a bit of that joy while playing them.

My main goal was to create something with a soul; something one can bond to.
I believe that this is of the utmost importance, if one would approach music on a higher level,
beyond the technical or mathematical.

My prices are extremely low. I import and sell directly from the manufacturer,
with whom I have a long and friendly relationship.
The resulting savings are passed on to you.
There is no magic involved, merely solid business relationships and an eye (and an ear) for quality musical instruments.
I can promise you a happy musical experience with an unsurpassed price to performance ratio.

I have been a musician for over 25 years and I tried to infuse these instruments with a bit of my love for the celtic music.

I hope and trust that I have succeeded.
