    Default New Morris F4

    F4 style mandolin hand-built by Sonny Morris. Top is Western Redcedar. Back and sides are Bigleaf Maple. Neck is Bigleaf Maple and walnut. Headstock cover, radiused fingerboard, armrest and body points are cocobolo. All natural finish, no stain or coloring.
    There are some pics on the Morris Mandolin Social Group. If a picture is worth 1,000 words, and a video contains 1,000's of pictures, but this one has no words...

    The problem with posting pictures in the Morris Mandolin Social Group is that all of us that are not members of that group can't see them.

    Beautiful piece of cedar on the top. I like his design. Really nice.

    What magnificent carving on the top! Stunning. Sonny has outdone himself on this one. Congrats again!
