There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946

Congratulations. Was that the one at Elderly? I was hoping that someone would buy it so I would stop looking at it
Thanks for the kind words folks but i think Tom Ellis deserves full credit.. Jamie the headstock is very cool,not to be repeated as it was very difficult to do.I am particularly fond of it as my Pa used to pinstripe Hot-Rods.. Hopefully Tom will chime in and tell us a little more about it.. for now i will await it's arrival..
The neck looks nice and slim.
oh my!
Please describe the sound or post sound clips! I've only ever played Ellis F's -- and they' were all KILLER.

Only Tom could pull off that inlay.

Tom's mandolins are ... oh so good! He has an impeccable eye for detail. Enjoy that axe, it's a beaut!
O.K. heres the rub. This little beast i think answers a lot of questions raised here on the cafe. You know what they are. Love it, no photo could ever do the headstock inlay justice. My search for guitar,mandolin combo is complete. Just a great mandolin.Thank you Tom Ellis.
simple elegance- love the parlor guitar, too.
Great pics. What kind of guitar is that?? It's not a Walker is it?
