Out for delivery....
Yessssss!! Those three magic words that bring such joy!!!!
After lurking here and reading about various mandolins I decided to buy an Eastman MD-315 from The Podium last week. I spoke with Jeff about the different mandolins and styles and he had 3 of these in stock so I asked him to pick the best one and send to me....
I can't wait, should have it by the end of the day and now the long weekend to learn how to play it.

Something vaguely satisfying about one of the good Chinese mandolins getting to stay in China for a while. Congrats, those are very good instruments and I bet it will make you very happy.
Re: Out for delivery....
I just picked the same mando the day before you..and I love it. Unbelievable instrument, not just for the price...just amazing. Congrats!!!
