    Errr... no. Or at least not at that price point.

    Re: A new prototype mandolin

    That mandolin looks fantastic - Modern styling but not completely detached from tradition. Love the sloped shoulders and cutaway.

    Re: Eastman El Rey?

    My El Rey arrived last week. I can’t claim any real talent with it, but it has me grinning like a fool just with the experimentation.

    Re: E-MandoCello -- Opinions Please

    I have always loved the sound from this double strung mandocello... but I’m leery of the long 26” - 27” scale length. I never played guitar, just went straight to mando.

    Re: Naming your Mandolin

    When I got Scarlett she came to me already named... and I saw no reason to change that.
