Hey all,

I'm wondering if anyone on this forum might know if Taos, NM based builder Tony Sutherland is still making instruments. I am currently playing one of his octave mandolins and folks ask me about the luthier from time to time. I don't have any info of what he's up to these days. Would like to know if he is still building.

Appreciate any info.

thx,
Doug

Don't know if it is up to date or not but there is a listing for Mr. Sutherland in the builder's database HERE. (http://www.mandolincafe.com/cgi-bin/builders/searchdb.cgi?uid=default&view_records=1&keyword=sutherland&submit=Search)
It does show to have been updated in August 2010.

Thx - I tried the # a few times over the course of a few months and it just rang and rang and didn't go to a machine, nor did anyone pick up. The mystery continues...
