Thread Name: Stradolin mandolins
Subject: RE: Stradolin mandolins
i may not know too much about mandolins
im 16 but have been playing guitar all my life prettymuch
and ive always loved mandolins (this is gonna sound really stupid, but my favorite mandolin songs are all of led zeppelins songs where john paul jones plays mandolin)
my grandpa gave me a mandolin that a friend gave him a while back and it needed some serious work
it had been sitting in a closet since he got it
so i took it in to my guitar store because i knew the guy who ran it was also way into mandolins and he fixed it up for about $200 and got REALLY excited about the way it turned out
he said its a stradolin and a verry nice one at that
he said its an earlier one
and ive been playing for like
2 days now and i LOVE it
it sounds great
