    Default Wilson TP-5 #24

    Last coat of finish applied to #24, a 2-point that will be going with me to Wintergrass in a few weeks. This one has birdseye maple back, sides and neck and a WVA red spruce top. It was strung up in the white a few weeks ago and played and sounded great. Waiting at least a week if not two to block down and buff out. I'll post more pics after I string it up again.

    Got the finish cured and buffed for the most part with a few pending touchups. Here are some shots of the front, back, and peghead. The abbreviated pick guard and the truss rod cover are out of macassar ebony. I leave 1st of the week en route to Wintergrass in Bellevue, WA with this mandolin, a 2-point mandola and my latest dreadnaught..
