Moving right along! Mine has the snakehead. Love the other headstock shape too.

12’ radius on the top and about an 8’ radius on the back, induced by the bracing.

And thanks all. I’m really happy with how it’s coming together. Can’t wait to hear it! :mandosmiley:

To my knowledge it’s a true flattop, definitely not carved. I’ll have to ask Lawrence if there’s any induced arching.

Fretboard coming together.....

If I remember right, he can do a 4 finger chop chord in first position.....on the mandocello!

Wonderful playing by all. Thanks for sharing!!

Well done!

Then there's the one not on their site:

Welcome to the club! :grin:

Lawrence has been busy!

We're in the middle of global pandemic where people are shipping more items than ever before. Add on top of that the holiday season. While I understand your frustration, these delivery drivers are...

Sounds like you made the right choice!! And excellent playing. :mandosmiley:

Super cool. Love that tune too!

Coming together fast. Can’t wait to see that flamed walnut under finish. You can also follow along on the Nyberg Instruments Facebook and Instagram pages. :mandosmiley:
