Re: New KR Strings Octave Mandolin -The Octolindo
I believe I first saw this on Thursday on an Instagram post from The Mandolin Store. I'd love to know more. What really surprised me is that the Octolindo appears to be an arch top while the Mandolindo is clearly a flat top. I love the 21.5 inch scale and at $3600 it would appear to be a serious competitor to the Northfield Arch Top Octave mandolin. I found the rosewood back and sides to be compelling and surprising. (I love love love the Terse shaped Pono flat top octave mandolin in this combination.) It would appear that this prototype was sold by the time I clicked onto The Mandolin Store webpage to learn more about it.
Are there any plans to make a maple back and sides version?
Play that which you feel is groovy, get down with your bad self, and shake your money maker if it makes sense for you to do so.
