Thread Name: Buying a mandola in the UK
Subject: RE: Buying a mandola in the UK
ythe last time i was in london i spend a few hours around hobgoblin. great and very funny/clever guys, and lots of choice.
i was most impressed by the buchannan instruments but hathway were very good as well. he had fylde for a decent price as well.
if doc rossi is playing a baritone cittern by ian chisholm then its probably good but he had a cittern list on ning and is a very helpfull guy so ask him. therte are lots of makers on there as well and many who will help you find what you want.
but i really likeld the buchannans, real cannon flattops. a great pro gigging instrument or for any sessuin or just for fun and not too expensive. i may get one when the ship comes in next time
