I'm a little late on the pictures (I received this mandolin in late October), but here it is nonetheless! The top is made from carpathian spruce and the back and sides from some nicely flamed maple from the Southern Virginia area. I had Gerald wrap a snake around the ole' Gibson flowerpot, since my nickname is Jake the snake. Man did he kill it! This mandolin has really broken in recently and I am enjoying the process of playing it. I also want to thank Spencer Strickland for the beautiful finish on this! I cannot stress how nice Gerald is, he is quite the man! Enjoy the photos!
The two pictures with the other mandolin is Gerald's third mandolin that I picked up a while back.
