Whaley A-style
Hey all,
Just happened across a Whaley mandolin at a store in Marin.
I had not heard of Whaley mandolins before, but this one was kinda nice.
It had a great dark tone, and was pretty loud.
It was a bit of a bear to play, but I liked it.
Any of you have a Whaley?
Anyhoo, there are a few photos below.
I added one photo of the little Blueridge Tenor guitar I played too.
I was actually quite surprised how fun this little guitar was to play.
It had a really nice tone, and was super easy to play.
These are a pretty good deal for around $500.
