    Just got my Skip Kelley yesterday. Man, can he build a mandolin! I love this thing! He's a pleasure to do buisness with.
    I just wish I could have took better pics.
    Here's the true color.

    The Montelone style was gone when I went to pick this up. Thank goodness, because it would tempt me too much. I really don't need another F style. I'm set now. A Kelley A and a Yellowstone.

    Skip's mandolins sound as good as they look, maybe even better.

    Play one if you get a chance.
