    I would like that rack of instruments in my house. Anyone know the maker of the octave that is in front of the banjo and behind the Collings?

    You guys are making me envious with all these fine instruments. Here is my humble 2006 Weber STE F Prototype. It is a good instrument for the price however, and sounds great. I also have the tailpiece/armrest which was installed by Weber at discount in an attempt to solve a tailpiece issue. It is nice, but didn't solve the problem. Problem solved during installation of a K&K Twin Internal pickup I recently completed.

    I would love to have a Fern someday, but since I'm a mediocre mando player, it would be hard to justify.

    . I love your STE F! Built in 06? I thought these STE mandos were the first builds for Weber when they started somewhere around 1996 or 97. I'd heard of these prototypes but have never seen one. Are my facts incorrect? I have a 99 bitterroot and I love it, someone here once said his Weber felt so comfortable in his hands and he's right! The first time I picked mine up it was incredible! A Perfect Fit !!!!

    Iron and Michael,
    Thanks for the compliments. Bruce and I picked out the wood together, an advantage of living 70 miles away. The back, sides, neck and headstock overlay came from the same timber. The sunburst on the overlay was Brett Byers idea and it turned out great. The top was an exceptional piece of Engleman from the R.L.Givens stash that Bruce had been saving. It was Brett idea to bind the f holes to stiffen up the top. She is a great instrument and only gets better as time moves on. My MAS has been fulfilled, I hope.

    Thanks, Michael, for the explanation for the non-Gibson sound. It educated me. I tend to play similar music as you described and usually I am singing along with the guitar or mandolin. It made sense to me that your choices of music work well with this type of mandolin. I know Webers are expensive, so I wondered if a Big Muddy or Red Valley would suffice in a similar manner. Thanks again!

I put Jazzdola JM11 strings on mine and it really made it sound nice. Lot's of sustain.

    The simplicity of the Gallatin F is just great! Here's another shot of mine, in a cut-down Ultimate GS100 stand, as stable as you could want.
