A few years ago I started 8 mandolins and just recently finished them all. I have 4 of them for sale here on Ebay and there are a couple other ones available, please inquire if you are interested in knowing more.This one is #231, recently finished in December, made of black limba and cedar. Nickel plated Schaller tuners and cast Allen tailpiece. Mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard and adjustable bridge. Neck has carbon fiber reinforcement. Case is TKL thick soft sided mandolin case with shoulder strap. scale is 13.875" and the nut width is 32mm, which is 1.25". (I make them 1/8th inch wider than standard, because many people do not like the smaller/normal width of 1.125").
It's looking more and more like I am going to be doing less and less lutherie as time goes on, so this is the last batch of mandolins to choose from (mandolas for sale, as well, please see my other items.) In the future I might make one from time to time, but for the majority of my time I have moved to making my new wooden veneer lamps (also pictured).
Please feel free to contact me if you have questions.
