This is one of my Possum Head Line of instruments. They are not finished out to a buffed finish. More rustic and plain in appearance.
Scott, the new owner is playing the octave and Colby is playing a Possum Head A mandolin in some of the videos.

John, the scale is 22" tuned GDAE.
Bill, thanks for the heads up. I'll see if I can get that one working.

Thanks Jake, John and Bill. I was pleased with it as It was my first octave size mandolin. The owner was really pleased. The videos really don't do the tone justice.
