Re: Carbon or all Synthetic Mando For Tough Conditions
Hey, I just posted this in another thread
A few years back Peter Mix was on the scene with the NewMAD then Mix mandolins. They were decent instruments but were pricey. I don't think Peter is building any more (I could be wrong about that). We have a few other members that are currently building them in small quantities. I'm not sure where the future is for them. I haven't bumped into any recently. Some history in the mandolin world can be found
here.
Keep in mind that there is a wood fingerboard on the Mix. That's one reason you can't leave it soaking in the pool.
There is also reinforced concrete.
