Meet my mando family

[Ken Olmstead]

I have always wanted a collection of mandolin family instruments and with a ridiculous amount of gear selling, swapping and obsession on my part over the last few months, I have succeeded! They are all imports and required varying degrees of setup work. However, they all sound and play excellent and will sound much better as I learn to play them!:mandosmiley:;)

Nice trio of bursts there, Ken.

Well done. Looks like they belong together.

Thanks you sir!

Thanks Jeff! I love how they look together. However, they sound great together too. I am going to record a couple christmas tunes using the trio. Should be a fun project!

I am done buying for a bit now. I have been nuts acquiring all 3 in 3 months, but now I will play the frets off!!

Well done!
What you've got there is a mandolin family fun pack. I'm jealous.

Be sure to post up a link once you've completed your recordings. I'm very interested in hearing them in concert (both meanings).

Thanks! Of course I will post the tracks when I get them done!

Having a hard time deciding which one to pick up when I have time to play! Its a wonderful problem to have! :)
