Starting to get slightly excited, as I jut received an e mail from Glen Reid (Burks falls, Ontario Canada), to let me know that my commission for one of his Mandolas is completed, and has turned out wonderfully.
18 inch scale
Eastern Spruce top
Black Cherry Back/sides
Upgraded to a nice gold cast tailpiece
Upgraded to priemium Gold Schallers
IMHO ...certainly a unique looking instrument. I DID take time to contact a few people listed on his website who are owners of these instruments...and have had some great reviews.
I suspect it will fit in nicely between my long neck Zouk (Abnett) and my Davy Stuart Mandolin.
I am attaching his stock photo (without the upgrade...but will happily post a pic of the real deal ...once it arrives.
