Might appeal to some. Hundred bucks opening bid. Probably needs some work but mandobasses are hard to come by these days.
Mandobass, bass mandolin, it plays but could use some adjustments. I made this bass. I'm a novice luthier. I grafted an electric bass neck to fit an acoustic body. A split in the headstock developed so I glued and screwed it back together. It seems very strong. I carved the arch top from spruce. The sides are maple. The back is poplar. It could use some adjustments in the setup. The nut is too high. I added a pickup to it but it's hanging loose in the body. I hadn't tried it with an amp.
Measurements:
Body 31" length 20" width 6 1/4" deep
Full length 58"
21 frets
30 3/8" string scale
