Just got my new M3-W yesterday and it's a pleasure!! And talking with Mike Dulak during the purchase process is a great experience in itself.
Congratulations, you will be pleased with the choice. These are great little mandolins
I've also got a wide neck walnut model. It' not nearly as affected by humidity changes as the mahogany model and I prefer the sound of the walnut. I've currently got the walnut mandolin strung with the D'Addario flatwounds, it took me a while to get used to them, but they've turned out to be quite nice... Enjoy. >>>===> Dave
I have noticed that my mahogany M-01 is more affected by Humidity than my rosewood M-04. i think I have posted about it here in a different thread. Cheers to all, good picking.
Congrats and welcome to the Big Muddy club! I love mine. The sound is soooo sweet.
