JazzMando What's New - We'd like to make you aware of a special instrument from JazzMando sponsor and perennial emando builder fave, Jonathon Mann (http://jazzmando.com/jonathan_mann.shtml). You may not be aware that the Tennessee builder is responsible for producing some intriguing acoustic mandolin family instruments, and he's offering one of his 2-points on his site to assist in funding a church mission trip to Honduras that his wife and son will be going on in June.
You have a chance to get an amazing instrument just off his bench AND all proceeds from the sale of this mando will go to help fund the outreach.
