FS: Octave mandolin and laud
I'm rationalising my collection of odd stringed instruments (read,
'yes dear, I will sell those now I've bought a bouzouki and ANOTHER
guitar'), and the following are surplus:
* Antoria electric mandolin - sunburst, single pickup, volume and
tone controls, f-holes, pear shaped (not in the bad sense :) ).
Pictures available on request and I'll restring it for you.
£100 or near offer.
* No-brand (as far as I can tell it's a Gremlin or similar import
for Hobgoblin etc) laud - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laud -
basically it's a Spanish six-course/12-string mandolin. It should
apparently be tuned AEBF#C#G#, but I keep mine in GCFBbDG (guitar capo
3) - a friend has a similar one he keeps in DADGAD or a transposition
of it. Quite light steel/silver strings, kinda mediaeval-looking.
Again, pictures on request once I've bought it some new strings.
£70 or near offer.
