Hi everyone,
I recently received a short scale (20.5") Davy Stuart Octave from Jim Roberts in Kansas. I AM CRAZY ABOUT THIS MANDOLIN! Oh my gosh, the tone, the sustain, the playability. A big thanks to Jim for sending the instrument to me so quickly. I play in a Scottish Ceilidh band and am completely stoked to take my DS to our next rehearsal!
I was frankly unaware that Davy had made any shorter scale length Octaves (as he advertises a 22" scale length). When Jim decided to sell his I was thrilled (for me!).
The instrument is less than a year old and is, frankly, better than new.
Just had to share. I'm trying to get to work today, but I was playing the DS all morning. #
