Wow. Wierd. I haven't been to the forum in a long time and the first thing I see is my resurrected thread.
Can't believe I missed my mandolin's first birthday. Thanks Wolfsong.

Maybe Moyer did the conversion to lefty. Nut and bridge slots look fine to me but note it has a "0" fret. The nut is only holding the strings in position. This looks like a plywood import to me....

Mike, with due respect I have to disagree. If you look at the close up photo of the f hole cut-out you can see every woodgrain extending completely through the top. Except for the thin layer added...

One thing I noticed on mine.... If you look inside the F-hole cut out it looks like there is laminated wood there which in fact there is. If I feel inside with my pinky finger there is a thin layer...

This listing caught my attention as I have one of these and this one appears similiar. I found mine in a music store and I couldn't believe the sound when I first picked it up. Very whoofy chop and...

I see he and his listings have been booted off. Hopefully nobody sent him any money.

So someone in Thailand is selling 5 (so far) Breedlove Quartz mandos. 2 have sold for $ 500 each. 3 still listed. He has no Ebay history and won't answer emails. The buyers are anonymous so there is...

:) Well, after a long year and a half wait I am a proud owner of a new mandolin from builder Larry Muth. This is his mandolin # 71 and the first ever two point.
It was a fun process with Larry...

:disbelief:My brother owns this Alveraz F style mandolin which I believe is the A800 model. Ebay purchase. I think Korean made. There are no numbers or markings anywhere.
Looks very nice, doesn't...

That's actually bare wood in the photo. Final finish will be medium dark, with the top darker than the back and sides. Although when Larry first sent me that photo I was quite struck by the blonde...

Ready for finishing.

Thanks. Never took the time to look for something else.

Message on the stream says they are done March 31. Sign of the times I guess. I for one will miss them. I ran it non-stop in my workshop. Down to XM/Cirius now.

Construction well underway. Looks like about a month to go. Trying to finalize finish and binding. Tough decisions when there are so many options. Decided against varnish. Leaning towards a dark...

I like the frozen one. Quite fitting for where I live. Anyway I could get a copy or a link ?
Thanks

What have you all got on your computers ?
Man it's slow at work !

Thanks for all the links. Very interesting. I had no idea....
Sure like the tone of Seth Lakeman's guitar. Wonder what brand it may be ?

What type of music are tenor guitars mainly used for ? Any sound clips anywhere ?

Here's the body shape. It will have a 1 piece back carved from a slab of off-quarter sawn maple that I was able to select from 3 pieces Larry had.

Yep. Going scrolless (sp). After e-mailing some sketches back and forth we have a design and Larry is beginning the patterns. Ridiculously exciting !:grin:
Larry's kinda pumped too !

Thanks. Can't see it there. Anybody else like this tune ?

Anybody know of tab available ? Or could someone tab it ?
On Hard Game Of Love Album.
Tks.

From much experience. Never ever use UPS for cross border shipping. Postal service does a great job. No brokerage fees. Sometimes a small handling fee and of course tax if you're purchasing.
