This one is known as 'Infinity'... a sentiment that I share with my wife.
I have only made a few mandolins, but the carving and flex is very similar to other arched instruments so that it comes natural to build them. None are in stock at this time.The one shown here, was a gift for Mrs. Raven, Love you!

F-Style Mandolins have a visual appeal second to none. Experienced players sometimes say that the scroll costs more than it is worth, but the A Style seems too simple sometimes. This little beauty shows off some Curly Maple with Curly Koa binding, dual Ebony veneers on the Headstock, top of the line Waverly Tuners, Ebony Fretboard, and a cool custom Silver tailpiece. It incorporates a wave motif into the headstock, along with the initials of my wife, SJ, into the rolling Infinity Logo. Bear Claw Sitka Spruce Sounboard.
'Infinity' was Mando #1, and I needed to ask for an appraisal both sonically and visually. When my Mentor Craig gave me an enthusiastic $10,000 tag, I figured he was being generous. Later, an everyday mando player said he had been looking for a new one all year, and that mine would be in the $6,000 price range... I almost quit making ukuleles and thought about making the switch to mandolin! But here on Maui, there are very few Bluegrass musicians...
