Glassweb, is that Paul Glass? Anyway, you are right. There are probably more choices now than ever, and that is a perfectly rational opinion. I have personally supported many of these up and comers. My own opinion is that Gil, Nugget, and Dude are only going to make so many mandolins. These are the top tier makers. My decision is based on a love and respect for their work, music in general, and an investment basis. I look forward to the day when I have all three! Monteleone does not seem to be in this "niche" market. Wish he was!
