I really like the single bound tortoise look.
Aw shucks :redface:
One of the best A style mandolins I have played was the Kentucky km900 at Gruhn's. I was totally blown away by how great a tone and bark it had. Definitely worth the money.

I saw some pics from the show and it looked like Adam was playing a Northfield mandolin. Whats up with that?
Perfect! This is just what I was looking for!
post a pic of your tortoise bound mando.
I am having a tough time trying to decide what finish I want. I plant my little finger when I play and I have heard that a varnish finish will start to wear off if you plant. I don't want to kill...
That is amazing! Love it!
No not yet. Daniel, do you remember Jed Clark from Rockygrass?
Thanks for the kind words Mr. Mike! Your mandolins are coming along real nice!
not just yet

Ok thanks!
Ok, Is there tone difference in a Gloss or Satin lacquer?
Thanks!
and yes I played his brothers walnut that had linseed on it and thought it was an outstanding mando.
He is a experienced builder. He thought it would be a good idea. He thought it would be alt like a varnish. He also said something about tung oil. I don't know what to think really.
WOW! What would you compare the tung oil finish to? I have been thinking of having this done to my new mandolin.
Ok thanks a ton!
I am having a new mando built for me and have been looking at different finishes for it. the guy who is building it suggested linseed oil for the finish. Would this be unwise to do?
This is very sad news. My condolences to the family.
jimbob,Are you still in searcy?
What would be the best mandolin for $2000-$3000?
