Thread Name: Buying a mandola in the UK
Subject: RE: Buying a mandola in the UK
I have a Buchanan and it really punches out the sound, but having a pin bridge with two rows of pins on a small saddle leads to the row nearest the bridge having a very sharp angle for the strings to get over the bridge. String breakages occur a lot. Otherwise a great instrument.
