    Default My Eastman mandolin and mandola

    Hello everyone,

    I've been a visitor to the cafe for about a year (about as long as I've been playing), but just now got around to registering so I could participate.

    These are my instruments for right now: An Eastman MD-515 mandolin and an MDA-815 mandola. I got the 515 back in March at Fiddler's Green in Austin and the 815 from Bernunzio's in June. I take more satisfaction than is probably healthy from the two looking like a matched pair.

    I love the finishes on Eastmans.

    I sure it's very healthy - they make a nice pair!
