You are right,on my bouzouki (see on my profile photograph ) I have the mini birds humbucker for the bridge,and the little crunchy for the neck pickup; they really sound good,and they the price is convenient 👍
An astounding instrument that I would love to own but sadly cannot afford. Want to try bodging one together from existing guitar parts but have no idea where to find an 8-string solid body bridge. Do you sell them?
so make a mandocello?.. start with a 25.5" scale acoustic guitar.. change out the nut and saddle, add a couple more tuners and voila.. a mandocello.. or even convert to just a 5-string instrument tuned CGDAE and then you have a mandocello and octave mandolin in one
Dave Durso I made an electric one. A 6 all on one side style neck is best for adding more tuners (6x2). 3x3 doesn't have much extra room. You can find a bridge online if you dig around. Make sure to get rail pickups so the string spacing doesn't matter as much
That's so awesome like 4 years ago I bought an electric mandocello off eBay for 1000 dollars and it sounded like absolute shit and I sold it for like 300 dollars lol this one sounds AMAZING compared to it
this is true, but remember - you have a virtual Power Chord with 2 adjacent pairs of strings. You can do an octave stretch from Low D (4th string, 2nd fret) to Mid-D (open 2nd string). The challenge is an octave from second string to first string. I cannot do it, but Radim Zenkle can!

Wow!! I’ve been playing music 45ish years and never realized I needed a mandocello until about 30 minutes ago. Sounds great!
Mandocellos are such beautiful instruments.
Love it...lil drummer boy and your cello tuning and fine craftsmanship. Gods continued blessings shine on you from heaven above...
This is so staggeringly beautiful. Grasshopper burst! Such a finely made instrument with a unique sound.
so nice had to say it twice
This is so staggeringly beautiful. Grasshopper burst! Such a finely made instrument, beautiful sound.
Looks sharp and sounds great! I really like the distinctive tones from each of the pickups.
As a cellist and bass guitarist, I need one right now
Incredible John! You have out done yourself!
That is a gorgeous instrument
This mandocello is my dream!
Nice Job. I had a Thornton Caldwell archtop mandocello made in Scotland, but just stolen.
That's a real beauty. :)
Great sound.
are they still available?
so how did you come to making unique electric string instruments? Was it rooted in woodworking, or more from the music side?
Nice! Do you sell strings for this? Thanks!
How would one go about aquiring one of these to add to my collection?
Don't sleep on GFS Pickups, they make some very nice sounding pickups

Where could I buy it?
Such an authoritative tone! Do you reckon you could get decent jazz tones out of it if you rolled off the tone some?
Do you have a schematic or dimensions for it?

What bridge are you using?

26" scale must be hard to play when tuned in fifths. Needs huge fingerstretch
