Mandolin: first fix

Mandolin nears completion.

The mandolin is almost complete!! You can see it, on the bench ready for its “first fix”. The strings go on and then via an iterative process, the nut and bridge are slowly modified until the best possible action and intonation is reached. The bridge blank is made from Brazilin rosewood. A time consuming process, but it’s what makes quality instrument stand out from the rest!
