Mandolin News.
Nine more mandolins in since the last download. The only new ones are the he amazingly cool solid body electric mandoblasters in four and five string versions. Only two of Bruce’s amazing finishes so far, more to come if they prove popular.
We’ve got six new great value used mandos. An excellent condition Lebeda F5 Master at £600 less than new, Jiri isn’t making this model anymore so get one now if you’ve had your eye (or ear) on one. Also a beautiful custom Weber Gallatin; one of the best sounding Gibson dolas we’ve had, it growls and grumbles like few others despite a new headstock; a well used but sound octavious; an also well used Flatiron that I think is the best sounding mando we’ve had for under four hundred pounds and another Gibson with a repaired headstock. This A1 also has exceptional sound if you are into that characteristic strong sweet bass (I am). Perhaps repairing gibbo headstocks does the sound good?!
In the next few weeks we are expecting, with some excitement, out first Ratliff F5. Audey has a great reputation stateside and we are looking forward to adding his great mandolins to our fold.
