When they did a not-so-minor repair in '92 (stupidly dropped my D-35 onto, fortunately, a well-carpeted floor), I added a "Mandolin Brothers" guitar strap. As time passes, folks are more & more likely to commment on the living history of it!

Our mistakes weren't quite so easy to undo
But by all those roads, my friend, we've travelled down
I'm a better man for just the knowin' of you."
