New project again, found this little gem for $300 Canadian shipped. Sadly the previous owner superglued the pickguard to the body, so while I await an anodized replacement, the fragments are held together with black vinyl. I’m still looking for some better brass saddles, seems the mandolin space doesn’t have a glut of parts. It’s definitely fun having an instrument in a different tuning that can be carried around easily.
