Is that Knutson, as in John Knutson, the electric upright bass builder, and sometimes builder of custom solidbody emandos as well? Nice looking mandolin -- how does it sound?
(Or, "how many hyphens can I fit into the topic title and description lines?" http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif )
Anyone out there have experience with one of these?...
Are there any good videos available that illustrate the process of staining and finishing?
I like their tone, and absolutely love their feel.
Benig -- you post is making me hungry and wanting to play a mahogany mandolin at the same time. (But alas, I have no mandolin at work, and all I have standing by for lunch is a can of Campbell's...
Nice work -- and I like your headstock design.
Intriguing thread. Are there much in the way of solid-body electric mandolas on the market?
If not, these two instruments from Epiphone, the Les Paul Pee Wee, and Flying Vee Wee, are 19" scale...

Per another thread I had been eyeing the composite-back mandolin types (e.g., Ovation) for their durability as a traveler, but in that price-point opinions tended to lean towards Mid-Mo for better...
Wow -- great tune. Are there any of his CD's on which he primarilly plays mandolin?
Another question for anyone with experience with any of those sub $200 laminate back/sides & solid top oval hole mandolins like the Oscar Schmidt OM12. It's cheap enough that it wouldn't break my...
You almost had me on the Mid-Mo Bob, but since bar fights are a favorite hobby of mind second only to music, I guess it's out of the running.
Seriously though Bob, that's a very good option at...
I know there have been a few threads in the past on these, but are all of these mandolins as durable as they appear to be? I ask because I have been thinking about getting a travel mandolin, and...
With 12 hours to go, the starting price just dropped to $50...
Though this might interest someone in the CBOM crowd as a beater, or someone wanting to experiment with a longer scale instrument with little investment.

Wendy -- thank you for the link.
BTW, that a great list of resources you have linked at you web site -- thanks!
We need more rockabilly with mandolin -- where can one acquire Free Rangers' CD's?
