Nice, lots of strumming space.  Great build J. Rob.

Unc  i originally had it mounted on a MDF paper box.
Sounded like crap! So i mounted on the Box instead.
Also had to pick a box that had this type of top/lid so i could slide it under the fret board.

Gees, the mando fretboard is the hardest part.  Looks great,

Cool job, J Rob!

Thanks Jim i really loved the tuners that were on it but the brass parts were shot.Tried to use alot of the main parts. Pretty thick lid so i did not use bracing but i used the original sound block post that was under the bridge.

Good job! I was gonna mention when I watched the vid that the headstock reminded me of some old mandos I've seen. Now I know why!
