With the shorter scale of 20", this cittern lies about halfway between a bouzouki and mandolin. The advantage here is closer fret increments which allow for faster picking and less finger stretch, and the low 5th course acts as a drone or for partial chord fingering.

​

 The scale is long enough to facilitate ringing out some rhythm chords without sounding tinny and the deep body design warms up the treble range.
