O.K., I know this is the bass section.

However, I am a bass player, and there is no Mandolin section to post things.

I took a day off from work, and drove down to POTR’s. It was still in the factory shipping carton when I got there.

Love it. Great work JH….

Dave,

Nice looking mandolin buddy. I wish that I knew you were going to POTR today as we could have met up. I was staying about 10 minutes up the road. I'm now sitting at JFK airport ready for the return flight home to Oz! Maybe next time!

Darren,

I would of treated you for lunch too. Chris is good enough to "tweak" some of my GTR's while I wait. I had some time to kill for sure. Next time your in the country let me know.

Have a safe flight...

Ken, Ye doggies no

I like the mandolin because of some of the old obscure Steve Howe sole albums, and the old "Band" stuff,

Brian, it's funny, after I posted that, I wondered how many posts afterwards would be calling me a Jeff R. rip-off, Image

.....sorry to be so predictable. Image

I'm kind of surprised that I haven't been mocked excessively for my main backdrop.......

Image

Image

....it's my "War Room/office" painstakingly masked and painted to look like a bunker and highlight the map of the world that was wallpapered on the wall when we bought the house. And to think my wife wanted to peel down that hideous map.....how could I plot my takeover of the world without it?!?!?!

Anyway....back on topic.....nice mandolin ! Image

Very nice Dave, congrats! I'm a bassist and I think those mandolins are cool too.
