Darby seems like a nice guy and I've heard a few of his Rose mandolins and they are a great value. #But, his name last name is "Boofer" according to his business card.Originally Posted by (Scotti Adams @ Feb. 01 2005, 13:33)

they are supposed to be Eastern Michigan maple...however, 74000 on the right is so so so light weight, I have to think that it is simply some East Coast soft mapleOriginally Posted by (Scotti Adams @ Feb. 01 2005, 14:30)
