Re: F style Octave Mandolin--Anyone tried one
I’ve owned an outstanding F-Style Weber Diamondback Octave, signed by Bruce Weber, that was built to be an exact replica of Sierra Hull’s Weber Diamondback. It’s been an absolutely wonderful experience. I haven’t looked in some time, but I thought Weber was still making them with various finishes & features. Highly recommend. They’re excellent quality - and Sierra continues to play hers fairly often I believe, so that’s quite an endorsement.
