Just FYI. This is not a vintage Masterbuilt. This is a newer made over seas model. Still might be a good instrument though. I have a 50's Epi Byron I had converted. Best mandocello I've played.

Just a quick note to say that I've revised and updated my free Tenor Guitar Tunebook - up from 41 tunes to 51 tunes.
