All stock photos except the fourth which shows a different headstock.

I just picked up one of these from The Mandolin Store and couldn't be happier.

Here is the version I have with tab and an English translation. Sorry the last line is cut off. This is the only copy I have and I wish I remembered the name of the library book I copied it from to...

The version I have has an English translation. Of course that does not mean that we get the true meaning. I don't have it with me but will scan it tomorrow and post.

I have tab for a version of Kalinka. If you message me your email I will scan and send to you, but it may be Monday before I get to it as it is not with me. I have a couple other Russian folksongs as...

I just finished my first build, an OM from one of Don Kawalek's kits. I thought I would share some photo's of it and the process.

I owe a big thanks to this forum and everyone who participates....

Here's the OM I just completed from one of Don Kawalek's kits. I love the way it plays and sounds but am still getting used to those long stretches.

I will second John's recommendation of Don's plans. I have almost completed one of his octave mandolin kits but he does also offer his plans for sale separately. They come with instructions and...
