I bought one in the summer, all ok but something didn't feel 'right'....so just made it into an octave with strings-052/ 038/ 026/014 as a four string...adjusted intonation, action fine....and now it...

Not sure I've ever come across an Alembic emando, but Stars Guitars (ex-Alembic employees) did make some mandolins.

I thought I'd try and get my 2¢ in before this thread get shut down. First, Jim, it seems painfully obvious that it's a free market and anyone can advertise in the classifieds what, how, and when...

I've owned an Eastman MDC-805 mandocello for six years or so; opened the case in March and found the tailpiece had snapped at the hinge. Took it back to the dealer (Stutzman's) to get a replacement,...

Let's see:

Fonder, C. F. Mertin, Paul Weed Smeth, D'Ungelico, D'Oquisto, Tukamine, Epiphony, Eastwoman, and so on...

I think Steve Ryder's Florentine 8-string would fit your needs. I own the 5-string, and he makes fine instruments with excellent pickups.

As of Monday, my electric kit may just be complete. My much-modified mandocaster, with Almuse pick-ups and wiring, Moongazer bridge and new Jin Ho tuning machines, will be joined by a new Roland Cube...

The Revelations have a neat approach.....for each pair of strings, one goes through a hole in the back of the bridge and one goes through the body! .....fully adjustable bridge saddles and less than...

No doubt!

If you have facebook you can see lots more at Cricket...

I'm not surprised production is limited to 36. What does surprise me is that they think they might sell that many.

Here are a few shots of #14 just finished and shipped to the client. He's working on some sound clips for me. A big thanks to my wife for the photos.

Here is a much better (sound quality) video of Josh Woods of Indianapolis playing Salt Creek on the concrete mandolin. I wish I could play like this!

If you're dying for a Moon Beam, one of the world's most hyped mandolin brands, here's one at a San Diego pawn shop for $700:

Thanks for listening, Rico. My son provided camera and was grumpy about having a mic in the visual frame, so the sound is not nearly close-enough miked and the room is very live, a bad combo. But the...

Listening back to the recording I uploaded yesterday with a day's distance, I decided that the first mandolin part could be improved. I've re-recorded it today, using a different mandolin (my...

A few shots I took this morning...

I just shipped this mandocello today, 5 courses, CGDAE. Sitka top, ribbon mahogany back and sides, ebony fingerboard and adjustable bridge.

Yes I cross posted this over in the tenor section, I but figured members that follow Pete's work probably monitor this section more. Once Pete casts the pickups it should be complete. Love getting...

nearly there
