Hey all.
I have been looking thru some pictures of mandos in both F and A styles along with 2 point and any other shapes, just to see what looks good to my eye at my age. One finish I really like is the one that comes on quite a few Eastman mandolins. The rich dark reddish brown finish really looks great, I think. But another that I think I like just as much and maybe more is the blonde glossy or semi glossy finish. I think it makes for an absolute gorgeous mandolin no matter the body shape. The only thing is there’s not that many of them out there or are regularly being made. It’s pretty much a custom finish wouldn’t you say?
I think if I could have my pick right now it would be one of these blonde mandolins.
What is your favorite finish? Do you currently own a mandolin in your favorite finish or are saving up to get one?
What about others? Are there other finishes that you really like that I didn’t mention? How about sharing your thoughts on the prettiest mandolin finish colors?
Of course if you have pics of some of these beautiful finish mandolins how about letting the rest of us enjoy it too by posting some of your pics?
Thanks for your time. Hope you all had a great Christmas holiday.
Larry
