 Each instrument is carefully crafted from top quality native and imported wood, and finished with a high quality varnish finish. All fittings are quality gold plated (Schaller tuners), with pickguards, tuning knobs and bindings of wood. The "Goldfinch" is a special mandolin made from Australian native timbers.

There is a lot of information available on this site that has taken an enormous amount of time to produce.  As I believe in free exchange of information, anyone is free to use any of the information so long as it is appropriately acknowledged.   This especially applies to the papers published in the JAAMI and the sound files.  If you use the sound files, please acknowledge the musicians who kindly produced the CD for me..
