Hey, all you resonator mando fans, I need your help getting National to offer a metal mandolin again.
In recent email correspondence with Eric at National about a guitar, I mentioned the fact that I ordered a Model 1 mando the moment they were announced. I told him I was surprised that they offered a wooden-bodied mandolin first, and asked if a brass mandolin might be in their future.
He said the metal shop is working to capacity making guitars, and that's why they went with the wooden mando. He did say, however, that a metal mando wasn't entirely out of the question, but nothing was being planned for right now.
So come on guys. Let's all get together and let National know how much we love their instruments, and how much we'd love to see a new metal-bodied mandolin.
Thanks so much
