2-Point Mandolins?

[terzinator]

bumping this up, because, well, Sprite.

Keep posting your two-points, y'all. (Gotta keep this higher than the "A vs F" thread!)

I still remember the Altman two-point that was at Fiddlers Green several years ago. I think it is still the only one he ever made. It was between that and a new Weber Bighorn...the Bighorn won. I keep thinking it was a mistake.

Max and Lauri Girouard have this one strung up in the white. Sadly, it's not for me.



And a Garcia model in redwood just getting started.

I don`t see all the hype about a two pointer compared to a regular A model, is it just the looks much like an F model? Of course I have never owned one so what am I missing as far as sound and/or tone goes?...That might have been answered in earlier posts but I didn`t read all of them, sorry if missed it....

Never should have sold this one, it's my #6 build. Red spruce, Birdseye maple sides and neck with a BE one piece back. I made the sides from a 100+ year old panel off a church pipe organ.

My #4 build and current player. It's red spruce with maple back, sides, and neck.

I doubt if two pointers sound different as a class. But they are my favorite design.

When I get to sitting properly that treble side point comes in handy, keeping things steady on my left leg.

I think there's a bit extra "cool" factor to a sweet 2-point. A bit more unique than either A or F. I love 'em!

Don't need no scroll to make the big show!

So, Steve, I was talking to this guy and he wanted to know when the next batch of Sprites was going to be coming out.

He sounded extremely antsy to get his hands on one.

He made me a little nervous, frankly.
