I've been eyeing Roger Bacorn's website off and on for about three years, now. For those same three years, though, I've been somewhat short on cash, having commissioned and purchased Bill Bussman's #311 Old Wave (it's mah baby...).
But, I still love Bacorn's mandolins, particularly his FL5 model (http://img387.imageshack.us/img387/6131/fl50sb.gif).
I'm pretty much decided on what I would get on it if I had him build me one, but I wanted to see who out here has one, which one, and what you think of the build and tonal quality, workmanship, etc.
Thanks for any information - I'm itching to get my hands on one.
