Would love to see those photos. Sending mandolin to Lynn D for a new nut and setup this thing must have been in the case under the bed for years. It has really opened up. The bridge saddle is...

Thanks planning on contacting Tut and or Mark. The mandolin really is good great chop and plays easily

For sure not GTR Tut built on and on after that partnership dissolved but all I have to go on is what the owner told me.

Well it has a great sound after a bit of set up and strings. Dropped slots on the nut. Really good and has opened up a great deal today

I don't know how or if he is able these days. That would be great though

I just picked up an A model mandolin from a guy in Nashville who is the son of the original owner. He said the mandolin was built for his father by Tut in the mid 70's. His father and Tut were...

Anthrax is rare but not desireable

As far as putting another company's name I think he would do whatever the person that comissioned the work wanted until gibson clamped down on him

Cool, I'm supposed to be getting more info on Hutto and his mandolins. As far as sound. 62 has it but it didn't until the bridge was changed out. I'm tempted to put a James tailpiece on it also. But...

Here is 62

Will do tomorrow when I get back home with my camera.

Yes, but has been set up with a new Steve Smith bridge and strings and is much better than it was 2 months ago. I just found out I owe alot of taxes so I probably won't hang on to it long but we'll...

I played this "Daley" at a jam at Sim's house. He took finish wear and finish checks from "hoss" and duplicated it. Sim originally made it for himself but I think Adam talked him out of it. Not for...

I picked it up at IBMA but played it in a music store in east Tennessee 6 weeks ago.

Thanks for the link. I should have spent more time first I guess. I got #62 this weekend. I haven't put it down. it is amazing. Sad to know he is not around to build any more of these gems.:(

I just got #62 this weekend and this thing is incredible. I want to know more about this builder that recently passed away. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

Thanks in advance but are there any links or any information sites available on mandolins that were built by Hutto...I don't even know his first name. I just got one a Gibson clone but none the less...

good job Buddy

Admittidly I am a novice, but the label says Master Model but I thought the thread was....Derrington signed mandolins. Anyway it is whatever it is and thanks for the info. Sorry if I misposted....

Mike that is correct. I guess the plug and re-bore to taper to fit will be the best way. I was maybe wanting to keep the door open for another endpin jack if someone else bought the mandolin and I...

Is there a source or someone who makes or can make an endpin to restore the look (on the outside) but fill a 1/2" hole left by an endpin jack opening. I didn't want the endpin jack and my strap...
