    Default My Custom Finck Mandolin

    The custom birdseye maple mandolin that Jared Finck made for me this year is on the cover of the "2013 South Dakota Magazine Gift Guide" at

    He has also posted photos at various stages of the build on his facebook page at

    Good to see Jared getting some publicity. He is certainly a nice guy. Met Jared and Joel Finck at the SD Fiddle contest in Yankton where I was able to play one of his mandolins. It sounded very nice, well balanced from top to bottom, just felt good to in my hands.
    I know you'll enjoy that mandolin.

    Very nice mando. If I had built one when I was 20 it would have looked
    like I had carved it with a rusty screwdriver.
