    Default Electric 10 string Octave mandolin/short scale cittern

    Just strung up this little beast for a chap in the US. Its a lefty, 10 string OM. The body is 1960s vintage Queensland red cedar, the neck is Cuban mahogany felled in the early 1900s.

    The red cedar is gorgeous, and the tailpiece/jack is a really nice blend of style, form & function. Any more pictures?
