View Full Version : Mando Clock
I just started playing mandolin a few weeks ago and just realized the wall clock that has been in my music room is based on a Weber Fern. I don't even remember where I bought it but it sure was a reality check now that I'm playing mandolin.

I'd like to see a photo of the clock, It sounds pretty cool. Welcome to the wonderful world of mandolins.....
So subconsciously all along you bought mando stuff and were destined to play the mando... :)

OK, here's a picture of a MandoClock. Not the one that Dave mentioned, but the one that hovers over my back while I do mando repairs, build reso. guitars, and build those Happy Little Traveler Mandolins....

Nice resophonic mandoclock Steve! Did you put that together? There could be a market for these...

How's the tone? Is the "tick" pretty balanced with the "tock"? :confused:

Way cool clock you have there.
A quick google pulled up this (http://www.cafepress.com/ultrageek.104782299) mandolin clock, although it is a piece of plastic as opposed to Dave's wood soundboard, back, and sides.
I wish I could remember where I bought it. You would think Weber would have had some involvement with copyright laws and all. Funny thing is that I wasn't even thinking Mando's back then ! I will try and post a picture tomorrow.

Here's a picture of the only Weber I can afford for now !
