Thread: Jeannie o’ Bethelnie on my Sawchyn Mandola

    Default Jeannie o’ Bethelnie on my Sawchyn Mandola

    I’ve had this Sawchyn Beavertail Mandola for a year or so…gradually trying out using it for song accompaniments. This song (Child Ballad 238) was learned from Dick Gaughan’s version many years ago as a DADGAD guitar arrangement. Absolute key is still D.

    Thanks to the Cafe Classifieds for providing the essential link that brought this 8#string home to Canada! (And to the nice fellow who sold it to me!)
    Wonderful instruments these Sawchyns and best wishes to Peter on his retirement.
