    Default Osborne Mandolins

    Has anyone seen or played one of Bryan England's Osborne mandolins and how was it?

    About 5 years ago, I played one Bobby Osborne was carrying around. Well made, solid F-5 with good tone and a nice feel to the neck. Way too much inlay in the fretboard for my tastes.

    I've picked several of these over the past 5 years and I've never been able to get the same tone Bobby Osborne does.
    I wonder what my problem is. Can't be the mandolin
