I know that mandolins are basically the same as a violin in that the strings are inverted g,d,a,e from top to bottom. That instrument is almost like a mando guitar. Correct me if I am wrong. Still VERY COOL! Thanks for sharing it with us.
You're welcome, Jeff.
I don't think Paul Bigsby made very many, so I imagine their price tag AIN'T "Itsy Bitsy"!
I'll grant you that yes, it's body shape does LOOK like a gtr....but there are plenty other mandos that also cop a "guitar" LOOK.
hey, i played at a birthday party last wk and the cake was in the SHAPE of a guitar.....but trust me, no mistake... it was in fact...a CAKE....not a gtr!![]()
Are you sure that cake wasn't a mandolin?
