HowieBass Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Looks like one of those inflatable guitars and the positioning of the knobs (fnarr, fnarr) looks odd. So therefore an entirely appropriate name... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrismuzz Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I can't imagine anyone looking at that and thinking "I need this in my life" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingBollock Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 It looks like a bass that has shrunk in the wash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK Jale Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Ain't no mandolin, that's an electro uke. Eeek! Always liked the old mandolins. I remember reading a thing with Suzi Quatro where she said she was given a matching one for free when she bought a custom colour Jazz Bass...

iiipopes Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I've played an original '50's Fender mandolin. Meh. Now, this new instrument - gives a brand new meaning to the old tuning song for ukes: my dog has fleas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gelfin Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 This is my nearest to a Fender mandolin, Tele copy neck, Encore mandolin neck, still in the making.

I also bought an all maple from him at the same time. Both necks are excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
