Anyone know what kind of mandolin he is playing. Sort of looks like a Martin but the fretboard end looks unfamiliar and I thinbk the headstock has some sort of inlay. Custom-made?

I don't know. They sure look different to me. The one in the video looks like it has a smaller body than the Gibson in the picture, and then there's the fingerboard. Doesn't it sound like he's got that mandolin strung with octave-high strings (like a 12-string guitar) on the bass courses?
