Suited for first-time builders with limited woodworking skills as
well as those looking for a challenge, this workshop manual
features four mandolin projects that range from a simple flat top
and back model to the more complex, fully carved “A” style
mandolin. The accompanying narrative offers step-by-step
instruction in a relaxed, conversational style that not only
explains what and how something should be done but also why it’s
executed in that particular manner. A set of full-size, detailed
plans pairs with photographs, diagrams, and illustrations to round
out the instruction materials. The manual's informative
introductory section featuring a comprehensive history of the
mandolin, construction techniques through the ages, and color
illustrations of rare instruments—some of which have never been
previously published—enhances the appreciation of this ancient
string instrument.
