    Default New Mandolin Stand

    Just completed a new mandolin stand for a customer. I've been working on it for quite a while in between other projects. This one has abalone inlays.

    It's curly maple. I scored on a great piece of 8/4. There's enough left over for a mandolin!

    Lovely work, Doug! Is that thick felt on the padded/contact areas? Looks great.

    Yes, thick heavy felt in the contact areas. Heavy duty Velcro for safety and it's hinged to fold flat.

    Yes, it will hold an F5 and w/Tone-Gard as well. PM me for pricing, I also have a page on the website.

    FYI, I will be pulling the winners for my drawing Sept 2nd. Two winners will receive a McClung armrest or a pick box.
