The new issue of American Lutherie Magazine has a great article featuring Andrew Mowry and his detailed approach to mandolin building. This is the first of two articles from our joint workshop at the last Guild of American Luthier's Convention. Outstanding work; thanks for sharing Andrew.
The next issue will cover my part of the workshop including a detailed overview of the removable top and back plate testing jig that I use to tune and voice the instrument and my dovetail jig that turned the process from a frustrating, mediocre joint that took half a day to one that is crisp, clean, extremely tight and precise, and takes all of 15 minutes without using a cnc.
The next convention is coming up in July; 'my favorite one in the country!
