    Default Nmd

    New mandola, actually. I own a Pomeroy oval hole mandolin that Don Paine built for me last February. It is the sweetest mandolin I’ve ever owned or played. So, I commissioned Don to make a matching (woods, finish, etc) mandola for me. I received it last week. A deep love affair is underway at my house. I’ll try to post a video or at least an mp3 soon.
    But, here’s some photos….

    Congrats! from another Pomeroy oval owner. Don builds outstanding mandolins that are huge bargains these days. Amazing quality for the $.

    Here’s a quick recording I just made. Just a “medium room” amount of reverb added.

    Nice! I have Pomeroy #39 F5 from 2003...it is fantastic in every respect. Don makes some great instruments and for some reason they are really undervalued. Outstanding value for the money.
