Re: Carbon fiber mandolins
I have two good wooden guitars (Martins) but I prize my carbon fiber guitar, the Bluegrass Performer, made by Composite Acoustics. No wood at all, not even the fretboard. Tough and rugged, not affected by extremes of temperature or humidity. Action never needs to be adjusted but is always the same. Sound is beautiful and loud. Just a wonderful instrument that sold for about $1400 new (I bought it used for $900).
When I started playing mandolin, my first hope was for a CF mandolin for all the reasons that the CF guitar was a valuable member of my musical family.
