Well after playing the guitar for best part of 20 years and the mandolin for best part of 15 years, I have just ordered this instrument:

(the octave mandolin with Walnut back and sides which will probably be taken off here soon as it should no longer be for sale...)
Looking forward to getting stuck into this, actually prompted after doing some recording recently and someone suggested I try an octave mandolin so I borrowed one and really liked the sound of it...
PS I'm assuming that this is an octave mandolin as I take it that mandolas are tuned the same as a viola (cgda)??
