Side bound vs top bound

[mandomick]

I'm pretty sure my BRW J16 is triple bound and mitred at the points.

Side bound just looks cleaner to me.

That is an absolutely stunning instrument, mandomick. Have you posted additional pictures of it anywhere else? I'd very much like to see more!

Personally I prefer wood bound. Perfling on the top or side doesn't really matter to me; both can look nice.

Took me a while to find it due to the search function not recognizing "brw". Not good pics but some additional views. This one will be in the classifieds whenever I get off my duff.http://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1069
