Jake, welcome, I think that Old Hickory are the same as a great number of chinese mandolins all branded under differant names the one on ebay at the moment is identical to my Infinity. mine is very thin sounding with very poor sustain even with an upgraded bridge and decent strings mind you I may have just got the one made last thing on a Friday http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
