    Who builds the mandolins that have "the Bluegrass" inlaid in the peghead? If you know, do you have contact info?
    Thanks

    Charles, the guy that builds "The Bluegrass" mandolin is Glen Cecil from St. Albans, WV. I don't have his phone number or address, but if you'll call Route 60 Music at Barboursville, WV, they carry some of his mandolins from time to time and I'm sure they'd have his phone number and address. Rt. 60 Music's phone number is 304-736-7466

    Hope that leads you in the right direction,
    Jim Watts

    Charles, it's been about a year since I saw one, but I think they are in the 1500 to 1800 range.
