Introducing the Sorensen "F8"

[Trey Young]

Great work Steve, love the design, the execution of said design, and the sound!

[DougC]

Sound hole design - very nice.

Here's a combo video of F8 action from the Huck Finn Jubilee in June.



Sorry about the background noise -- we were about 50 yards from the main stage.

Nice video Steve! Your mandolin sounds awesome!

[Denny Gies]

One of the most beautiful backs I've ever seen. Great work. Thanks for showing this to us.

I want - almost everything I see here

I listened to the MP3, sounds gorgeous. it opened in Itunes, so there I am enjoying the mandolin when it suddenly ended and immediately "Good Lovin'" by the Rascals jumps in. scared the heck out of me

by the way, my name's Randy and it really hurt seeing that "Randy" got that gorgeous instrument, and not having it be me!

If it makes you feel better I was just the test pilot on the beautiful F8... a very powerful mando.
It ended up in the hands of Mr. Lee Roy of The Roys who, I believe, sleeps with it under his pillow

A new batch of Sorensens is just about to be born too!
