OK, Mr. Beimborn, go ahead and fess up, you bought these from the classifieds right out from under my nose when I wasn't looking. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif
Somewhere there's a builder out there who should resurrect those body styles. Who's gonna give it a try??

Go there to see the "Student" model. I've got one of these at home and it's quite respectable.

Yeah, those went fast. Just as well, I might have been tempted. They're a handsome design, especially the one with the cuts in the lower bout -- Artist?
Did anyone keep the photo? I forgot to grab it.

Wye,
When it was ON HOLD I e-mailed requesting the detailed pictures even though it was spoken for and didn't get a reply. If you search under Post a Picture of Your Mandolin for Bacon you will find pictures of both of them.
It wasn't me, I was in Legoland with my kid http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

John, if you resurrect one of those Bacons you'll have the honors to name the body shape. How about B# http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

I have an artist model and Peter Mix expressed interest in possibly doing a clone.
