FAQs. Q: Are the chords in this guide based on theoretical chord knowledge alone, rather than actual 'hands on' experience? A: Absolutely NOT, every chord in the Chord Bible has been created with an actual instrument on hand to check for voicing, fingering and average hand/finger span.

Q: Will I need all the chords in this guide? A: Probably not, but the whole ethos behind these guides is to provide a complete chord solution for the musician wanting to pick up virtually any songbook in the certain knowledge that he/she will find that elusive chord in the Chord Bible, from basic majors and minors up to exotic extended thirteenths.

Q: I'm a beginner, will The Irish Bouzouki Chord Bible be suitable for me? A: Yes, it has a well balanced selection of easy to play chords, along with more advanced shapes for experienced musicians. Q: What is the correct tuning for the Irish Bouzouki? A: Generally, the most popular tuning is GDAD (or Irish tuning) which features in this Chord Bible. But some musicians also use ADAD (or modal D tuning) or GDAE (Mandolin tuning). Q: What's the difference between the Irish and Greek Bouzoukis? A: The scale length is very similar, but the tuning is totally different. The Greek bouzouki is tuned CFAD. The Greek version also has a bowl or rounded back, whereas its Irish counterpart is flat.

Q: Do you do a Chord Bible for any other members of the Irish bouzouki family of instruments? A: Yes, we also publish titles for the mandolin, (tenor) mandola, octave mandolin, cittern (longscale & shortscale), Portuguese guitar (Coimbra & Lisboa tunings), (Spanish) Laud and Waldzither.

Q: Will this Chord Bible help me play from any songbook? A: Yes. You'll be able to pick up virtually any artist or compilation songbook, fakebook or Busker book with guitar or piano chords in and look up the chords you need in the Chord Bible. It really is as easy as that! Q:Tell me about your shipping policy A: All of our books are now printed to order from specific locations within Europe and North America.
