    I bought one just like this off ebay from China about 5 years ago. Not bad at all, after I got the mando neck repaired from being split open during shipping

    Plays and sounds great now. Click image for larger version.

    Howdy y'all, just found this video and thought it was relevant. It's a compilation of three different clips featuring Paul Buskirk on his double neck electric mandola-guitar. The last one is my favorite, but their all pretty cool.

    Nice video, looks like it's from some sort of movie.

    Getting back to the original topic, as posted by Paul, here is a clip of Alden "Shorty" Holloway's widow having one of his doublenecks evaluated on Antiques Roadshow in Seattle. The name "Rant" appears on the mandolin headstock.
