My Mandolins

 

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

(1) Neapolitan-style "British made" mandolin of unknown age and provenance, acquired in 1985 but probably c.1920s-30. 

 

 

 

 

    

 

 

 

 

 

 

(2) Ozark mandolin. I got this as a 21st birthday present in, ahem, 1988.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(3) Breedlove Cascade. New in 2007. Simply gorgeous, unbelievable sound and projection, a pure joy to play or just to look at. Now fitted with Fishman bridge pickup.

 

 

 

 

 

 

also: "RICKENBACKER 4001" copy - a fake from the 1970s it seems: possibly an Italian Ghershon?
