John Stump mando

[Count Cozio]

Newbie here looking for any info on American luthier John D. Stump. I've recently acquired a nice A-style oval-hole, celtic-looking mando made by him in 1979. Anyone out there in mando land know of him?

Thanks a bunch.

he made some very nice bouzoukis too, stopped building due to health problems. That's quite an unusual instrument and if it's anythings like his bouzoukis, I bet it's got a lovely sound
