  • Great playing, lovely tune. What's the name of this tune you're playing?

  • @klickstarter It's a tune named Vianne's Lullaby. I made this tune "on air" for my beautiful daughter Vianne when she was trying to catch the sleep. The "ghost" of this tune is "Down by the Sally Gardens" and I modified the rythmic but the notes are pretty like the same

  • so beautiful

  • hey man is your mandola made to specification or is it one of the pre-specified Accord models? Because I;m undecided as to whether to get one made to specification or not cos the Accord one looks lovely as well. peace

  • @juskiddinfreak91 You can get them made or sometimes off the shelf in several places. In the UK, there are quite a number of makers. Google Thomas Buchanan mandolin, Fylde Instruments, Sobell Instruments or Freshwater Folk Instruments. The one shown is a Freshwater. They cost about £500 to make but DON'T believe Dave's estimated delivery dates. The other brands are more expensive. There are some East European and Far East ones available. I picked up a bargain UK one on Ebay.

  • beautiful.

    how much did you pay for this instrument and where can i get one??

  • Very nice playing, the Freshwater sounds great.

    My lovely Freshwater Mandocello/Bouzouki is on sale on ebay right now.

    Cheers

  • J'aime bien le son de cet instrument ainsi que la musique .*****. J.C.

  • Not bad mate! You definitely have potential.

    ps. have you seen Olivier Uldry's tune on the octave mandolin? It's incredible.

  • ya make Dave proud! I bought one too..., just lovely.

    cheers!

  • great playing.. i read that these mandolins are made in Scotland. i'm shopping for an octave mandolin not made in china. how do you like this one? Freshwater has a new, cheaper line called Accord.. i wonder if one of those would be good enough for a beginner, or if it would be better to spend more money and get the higher priced one.. hmmm..
