Hi,
Last night I watched the DVD of "Bluegrass: Country Soul". On the Osborne Brothers's sections, it looks like he has some sort of white cover over the mandolin's ribs. Its not totally clear, but in some shots it looks like there may be some tabs extending on the top. I've never seen any other mandolins with anything like this. Is it some sort of rib cover or protector or decoration? Or is it just a strip of paper taped to the top for a tune list or lyrics?
Here are some YouTube clips to see what I'm talking about:
