MANDOLIN
The mandolin I make has a fairly wide and deep body, and the sound produced has a lot of volume and depth.
It is very well suited for traditional music, whether Celtic or not. Its size is reminiscent of South American mandolins.
The tone is different from a Neapolitan or bluegrass mandolin.
