This mandolin was built by a long time friend and fellow church member Otis Singleton of Centerville, IN. Otis does not build mandolins and guitars as a business per say but rather as a hobby. To put this in perspective, this 2002 mandolin is only his eighth.I also own his third mandolin as well and it was birthed in 1983. Both have (as all instruments do) unique qualities in which I have grown to adore. I play the newer one mostly these days but I haven't forgotten my older friend. The 2002 mandolin has a wonderfully bold bark and great volume on the noting. They may not be Gibson's but I am happy with my instruments. Consider myself blessed to own such quality pieces.
Happy picking to all!!
