These are not the nicest playing mandolins (and it's a little out of your price range), but they're "BUILT IN THE HEART OF BAVARIA" :idk: :

This has been in my family for a long time now. inherited from my grandfather when he passed around 10 years ago. It needs some love and care to work properly (has a crack in the binding on the back), but I intend to fix it up. Still has some original strings on it. :lol: :)*

I've got one of these fuckers:

It was less than $200 IIRC and I love running it through various fuzzes and shit. The pickup isn't amazing, but whatever, it amplifies it and I always run it through dirt anyways. I really need to play my mando more.

Those are both amazing.


I've got a cheapo mandolin with kind of high action. I played it today with a slide and it's amazing.

I love slide mando--it used to be a specialty of mine--very phat sounding, and the 5ths tuning makes for playing patterns that naturally trnd away from a lot of slide cliches.... Because of the quite high string tension on most mandos you don't even necessarily have to jack the action to play fairly cleanly....

Time is all relative. You must live with history in the present. Forever over the shoulder, it is the light that makes one's shadow. :thumb: :lol:

Haha, just claim it was your Ramones phase. It ain't that bad anyway; better than whatever haircut I perpetually have.

Nice mandolin though. Madolin is too exotic for me (or too small or too hard...don't know...).
