Nice photographer, Jeremy Keith!!

@adactio Have you ever played an Octave Mando? Bought one 3yrs ago and still love it bernunzio.com -great place for folk inst.

@adactio the joy of the Museo della Musica

@adactio Also is that neck part of the body? I see the frets resting on the body towards the sound hole so I’m guessing yes.

@adactio Love those high frets on the sound board :-)

@adactio Looks incredible.

@DroidPinkman I play bouzouki and I tune it like a mandolin so it’s very similar to an octave mandolin.
