Re: Howe-Orme mandolin video
Sidenote...I used to live up the street from Rick Turners shop and stopped in to visit and chat often. Rick was a wonderful guy & so full of knowledge. Early on he showed me his collection of Howe-Orme instruments of which he had many. These have been the only ones I have personally seen and been able to play. They were lovely with a rich more delicate, precise voice. Rick was quite in love with them.

ps once I loaned Rick my Gilchrist A3 so one of his apprentices could check it out.
