Looks sweet! Love the props.....nice picture.

That's a sharp looking mandolin. Nice Job!
A friendly tip though... we do make a "universal" tailpiece without the Weber "W".

[bernabe]

I happened to have that tailpiece layin' around in pieces parts box for awhile so.....used it.

Thanks for the compliment...I do like the way that tp sounds.

[Brett Byers]

I really like the way you bring the recurve around and under the FB extension, and I also really like the way you made the FB extension flow with the recurve. And that's a beautiful burst too!
And just so there isn't any confusion... there's nothing wrong with you using a "W" tailpiece, I just wanted you to know we do offer one without the "W". With a mandolin as nice as that one, you don't want to advertise for someone else. ;)

Very nice mandolin. I clicked on your web site and the link did not take me to a search page.

[red7flag]

Very classy finish. Great looking instrument.

[Trey Young]

[wildpikr]

I'll second the sound clip request...nice looking instrument and it appears that you have good photo skills too.~o)

[bernabe]

Thanks . I do have a back pic somewhere before it was finished. Disregard the website link. It is still being constructed and I will have to remove the link until it is actually up later this week. When it is, a sound clip will be there for that instrument.

[JEStanek]

Very nice looking mandolin. Congratulations.

Any back or headstock pics? Here a back shot during finishing 64928

[schloss]

Now, theres the WOW factor I was talking about on another thread. Hope it plays and sounds as good as it looks. Very nice work.

[tburcham]

James,

It's just gorgeous! The back is striking and sunburst is beautifully done. Congrats on the build!

[Kramster]

Beautiful indeed!

[MandoNicity]

What a beautiful finish! Gorgeous back too! And for some reason your picture makes me crave a glass of red. ;)

I'll go along with Brett Byers - Quote " I really like the way you bring the recurve around and under the FB extension, and I also really like the way you made the FB extension flow with the recurve" . Very nicely done indeed,the whole instrument looks stunning !. What a contrast to the (IMHO) hideous,chopped-off-straight fingerboards seen in a few pics.recently posted on here,made by a VERY well known & respected builder,
Gorgeous craftsmanship - Ivan;):cool:

[Mandolin Mick]

That original post has such a nice picture that I put it up as wallpaper!

[bernabe]

Thanks to all for the kind words

[Ben Milne]

James - your mandolin is a stunner. I have similar recurve on my mandolin and it sounds amazing.
While I like the organic nature of mine (local woods, traditional snakehead, aged finish etc) the FB end/headstock shapes and and figured back certainly make a very classy modern look.

[Cheryl Watson]

Very, very classy and beautiful!

[Jim Ferguson]

A real beauty Bernabe........way to go. I am looking forward to the sound bite to follow.
Peace,
Jim
