      This one is a 20” scale, 14 fret join with a smaller body than yours……. At night I think to myself: “I am a mandolin maker. I am a mandolin maker…..” over and over again. The endorphins I get from just thinking about them are almost overwhelming……

      I'm all riled up with mandolin excitement now!

      I've never liked playing Mando because they're just too small and fiddly. That octave Mando looks just right.

    Very nice. I'm on my 5th OM prototype but I sticking with flat soundboard and back, though I do induce a slight arch on both, and I'm sticking with the bound oval sound holes like the early Gibson As.
    I like how you carved using a profiler

      That sounds great! I’d love to hear what they sound like!

    Any recommendations for a sealant on a torrified neck that will not be finished?

      Tru-Oil works very well. Super thin, seals and adds visual depth/lustre but not thick or shiny…..
