Hello folks,
I have a Kentucky KM-172 amber mandolin.
Nice instrument and well built, in fact a little to well built to be honest.
Heavy gloss finish and I suspect a fairly thick top.
I wondered if there would be any mileage in stripping the top and sanding to a thinner spec? (from the outside) and refinishing with a thin oil finish.
Absolutely not bothered in the slightest about resale value, just want a bit more resonance.
Cheers
Oliver
