Burtenshaw #10

[burt50]

I just finished #10. It's a redwood top and walnut back & sides. Finished with Seal-lac sealer, then french polish on the top and Tru-oil on the walnut. I'll try to get a sound sample up. It sounds pretty good...

Very nice!

Love the treatment of the end of the fretboard.

Thanks for sharing,

I Like it.......... that back is really nice......... I like the smaller details that keep it out of the standard A-style form.......... Nice, Nice

[Trey Young]

Very nice! Is one you're planning to keep for yourself or is someone already in line to take it off your hands?

[Denny Gies]

You should be proud, nice job. How does it sound?

[burt50]

Thanks for all the kind words, I wish I had some better pictures.
I hope this video link works. Not the greatest but hopefully you can get an idea of the sound. My buddy Paul playing a little this morning. Pardon my amateur presentation...

Lovely instrument. I like the walnut, and the vertical orientation of the oval hole. A little bit different, but not too wild and crazy.

Nice work, Brian.

There should be some people lining up for number 11. This is nice work and a great sound.

[Denman John]

I like it!

That's a good sounding mandolin, looks great too!!! Not that you asked for advise but the headstock needs a name on it. You are missing a big way to advertise IMO.
