    Not electric. The broad body makes me think of the Framus Black Rose models.
  2. Re: Inherited a Stevenson Mandolin- Looking for information about

    I would use info from both the shop and from ebay response. Some (hopefully most) moms and pops are very knowledgeable, helpful and honest. Some "guitar center" employees too. Some not. If taking it...

    That's a great idea, but will tell you what someone will pay to purchase it online, unable to check it out first hand. They'll search the maker's name and, of course come up with nothing. I suppose...

    Home made?

    The seller thinks this is home made. Do any of you recognise what I see as AH or HA on the headstock?

    Thanks.

    Re: F.E. Coulter instruments

    Thanks Allen. Your assumption is correct. Much of that info comes from the Cafe.
    I thought this would be the place to ask, as a number of members have (or have had) them.

    In 10+ years of standard tenor tuning on 7 (IIRC) guitars and 3 tenor banjos I've had maybe 2 A strings break. Tenor guitars are built for tenor tuning, CGDA.

    I just came across some Stahl propaganda that shows a family of instruments; mandolin, tenor mandola, bass mandolin, mando cello, mando bass.

    Thanks John. If that's the case, when did truss rods come in?
    I know the headstock is three piece.
  24. Re: Gibson mandocello one piece and three piece necks

    Well don't I feel silly!

    Obviously three piece. And that's just the sort of thing I get wound up about.

    At least I got it right when I asked in CBOM.
  25. Gibson mandocello one piece and two piece necks

    Hi all, I asked this a couple days ago in CBOM but have only had one reply so far. Forgive me for posting the same twice.

    When did Gibson make the change in mandocello neck construction?

    Thanks
