Hereby & forthwith, any instrument with an odd number of strings shall be considered broken. With regard to mix levels, usually the best approach is treating the mandolin the same as a cowbell.

There are two things to aim at in life: first, to get what you want; and, after that, to enjoy it. Only the wisest of mankind achieve the second. Logan Pearsall Smith, 1865 - 1946

With those long necks you could find every note on a single string! With proper tuning of that 8-neck Guitar you could play 3 chords in 8 keys without a capo! Ain't technology wunnerful?
Now that's a long scale....

Where do you get strings for those things?
I wonder if Calton makes a case for those?

You really should have posted it in the octopusses (octopi??) forum.
Actually, those guitars only have a 25" scale length, they've just got reeeeeally skinny necks.
If I call my guitar my "axe," does that mean my mandolin is my hatchet?

That's exactly why I don't use wall mount hangers for my instruments! They stretch the neck out a little too much for me!
Has anyone actually attempted to play some of these? I know the longnecks are probably impossible, but the multi-necked ones?

Do the anti-capo brigade still say they should never be used?
Forget the reach, think of the strength in your fingers! To play those things you could type from the other side of the room.
