A new Brescian Mandolin in Walnut and Maple

[Tukanu]

I just completed this Brescian mandolin in walnut and maple. The scale is 330mm. Strung with Aquila 1M.
Thanks for looking.








There is a recording up in the video forum

You’ve nailed that design, I wonder how many will get played as Uke’s? No binding David?

Thank you, Sebastiaan.
That one is in the hands of a uke player interested in mandolin.
The binding had to wait for #3.

No need to play it as a uke. When #3 arrives at my front door later this summer, I plan to get more involved with John Goodin's arrangements of Oswald's divertimenti (see Tukanu's post in the video files forum for the 1st movement of Divertimento #1) and, to boot, just ordered Rob MacKillop's latest: Play the Ukulele in 5ths Tuning. This will be my consolation for missing (due to my continuing Covid lifestyle) another Grey Fox festival.
