Re: Thinking about the Mandolin
learn them both and you'll have all the callouses you'll ever need!
I play both. I use nothing from guitar when playing mandolin, well other than the callouses! I also fingerpick on the guitar and flatpick on the mandolin. In my case the repertoire is completely different too!
Please though, recall that mandolin are more expensive. So, you don't want to get a $100 dollar mandolin to go with your $200 guitar. It's more like you need a $400 dollar mandolin to go with your $200 dollar guitar!
f-d
