I wasn't sure where to put this since it's not technically a video of me. It's also both lutherie/builder content and a video. Hopefully this is OK.
Here's some pictures of the...
Beware of the word "just", as in "I just knocked a big chunk of finish off the front of my mandolin's peghead." Unless you have had some experience I would just leave them where they are. if you do...
I'm Jason, and I'm a recovering banjo picker. I started mandolin just over a year ago and have been at it, pretty obsessively, I'll admit. Besides practicing and learning the mandolin like my life...

If actual silkscreen (which I prefer as it holds up better, and imho, looks better) then you'd have to choose...

Just when I thought I was settled on the Hercules Folk Instrument stand, along comes this one - and it even has a pick holder :grin:
Diamond Cove Music in Gloucester, Ma. has a decent selection of Eastman mandolins.
