New Mandolin Day, that is.
I've been wanting one of these for the longest time, and finally found the stars aligned in my favor.
I love its tiny nameplate and toaster pickup, the pointed fretboard and vintage appointments, not to mention its surprisingly true mandolin sound. This is going to be loads of fun.

It's got 8 strings and a toaster. Sounds good to me!

And none of those pesky truss rods.
Tony ought to love it. It's wearing his fave finish.

Very nice, Kira. How does it play? Are you a regular mandolin player? What were you using prior to this?
I can't wait to see what Jason "Jdog" Mendelson has to say about your new addition

Thanks, guys!
Jake, I used to play mandolin regularly. Although it's been some years, I still remember my chords and scales.
Scott, Jasmine plays like Jimi Hendrix, with her teeth.
