I’ve just complete this custom built, left-handed electric mandolin. (scroll down for video  )  Below is a video that we (Amanda and I) made during its construction- it’ll give you an insight in to how it was built. Cheers Gary |

Excellent video Gary - enjoyed that, thanks for posting. A fine looking mandolin too.
What is the weight of one of your electric solid mandolins?

I weighed a maple body one which I was shipping to Australia, and if I remember correctly it was about 2kg. It balances well and certainly doesn't feel prohibitively heavy like some solid body guitars. Cheers Gary |
