I’m sure the mandoquin would hold up just fine with mandola strings. I guess I have just always preferred the shorter scale mandolas because they seemed easier to play with the same fingering as...
Thanks everyone for checking it out and for the feedback. I’m delighted that others share my excitement for the mandoquin. Surely it won’t be for everyone, but I think it could meet the needs of...
Hello Mandolin Cafe Folks,
I would like to introduce to you a new member of the mando family, the mandoquin. The idea was to create a mando that guitarist would feel comfortable with a lot faster....
Thank you for your service Kimble 136. There will never be another like you. You will be missed. RIP.
Nice! It looks like its going to look much like a Gibson F9. Simple and elegant. Interesting how he is doing the fingerboard extension for an F-holed mando. I hope that it gets a nice pickguard with...
The guy on the right is John and the guy on the left is Jim from Old Standard. But I'm not sure who the guy in the middle is? Great photo! Thanks for sharing Scott.
Awesome work Skip! Sounds like a keeper.
Hey Barb,
Sorry but I don't have any sound clips of any of the Driftwood mandolins. I didn't start doing that until more recently. I would still like to get some better recording equipment when I...
One thing I would like to add. Not all my oval hole mandolins sound the same. Atetones Driftwood is more of a hybrid and has a more modern tone. The woods are bigleaf maple and sitka top. It has...
Hey Chris,
Thanks for chiming in and I agree. Thanks for the kind comments about your Poe mandolin. I hope its getting some playing time. Its got some stout competition there with the Ellis and...
Hi Doreen,
I wasn't trying to imply anything negative to you, I was just trying to explain my position. I am happy you were able to find what you were looking for and I wish you all the best.

I really appreciate all that have interest in my work. And I especially appreciate the owners of instruments I have made for taking the time to add their reviews.
guitharsis- I know who you are...
So sorry to hear about this John. I sure am glad you made it out safely with your loved ones. I can't even imagine it. Lots of of stuff lost that can never be replaced. I hope that you can get back...
Thanks everyone for all the kind compliments. It was a pleasure working with Steve on this mandolin. I am really happy that he’s pleased with his new mandolin. #
Sorry about the problems with the...

It won’t be long until you can order a CNC with a laser scanner from the Grizzly catalog. That’s right, make one, make a thousand...

delsbrother – I’m with Thile, I want to build as cleanly as possible. I just want to be the one doing it, not a robot for me.
When I said “It would be like doing a drawing, scanning it, printing it on a laser printer and then trying to sell the copy for what you would ask for the original.” I’m talking about inlay and...
I personally am in favor of machinery. I cant imagine doing my job with out it. However I personally don’t care for CNC/laser, not for works of art anyway. It would be like doing a drawing, scanning...
Last day of the auction of #020 on ebay! It would be a steal at current bid!
