    Aw bless, when I saw the title I wondered for a moment if it was going to be suitable for a family forum!

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bazooka_(instrument)

    That just tells you that Wikipedia doesn't have any information on a bazooka instrument with that spelling.


    It's bouzouki, as Pastures New has already said. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouzouki

    The bazooka is indeed an instrument though, but not like the one on the ebay listing. That is indeed a bouzouki. It's more like a trombone, and the bazooka weapon was named after it.

    That's my learning done for today. I can go back to bed now. :p
