    Rico - Looks great! I'd love to hear it! I would love to build an electric mando myself, but don't know exactly where to start. Roger Siminoff's books cover how to build an acoustic bluegrass mandolin. If I might ask, what resources helped you? Thanks!

    Hi All,

    I thought this would be the right place to post pictures of my latest creation. I know it's silly. But I had to build it, I couldn't help myself.
