Resonator bouzouki

Inspired by two good friends of the forum!

"Inspiration produced by bilateral electro-magnetic, cervical phrenic nerve stimulation in human."

The posts of two good friends/luthiers from the www.luthier.gr forum, (Manos Tourpalis and Panagiotis Kagiafas ), showcasing their beautiful resonator guitar constructions , meant to be the electro-magnetic nerve simulation for my brain for the last complete month.

What if the resonator was introduced to a bouzouki construction  which carried a wider lower body form (as the laouto-bouzouka) ?
What if the resonator bouzouki carried a walnut ,rosette style, resonator cover-plate?

What sound this hybrid instrument would produce?

Was not long before I found myself designing a resonator-bouzouki prototype following my personal decorative elements.

The design has been saved in my digital files, waiting for the day that the cervical phrenic nerve stimulation will be produced once again asking me this time for the construction of such hybrid instrument.
