    That's a beautiful mandolin. The color sort of reminds me of the Flatirons from the mid eighties.
    If F-model mandolins have F-holes then why don't A-model mandolins have A-holes???

    Truly sweet. Did you make it or buy it? (I see your username, but I don't know your story).

    levin4now, I started building acoustic guitars 20 yrs. ago and quite building after doing 8 guitars. Always being a guitar player I fell in love with the mandolin. After starting to play one I found that I couldn't find a good sounding one that I could afford so I started making them. Gary
