I just picked this up in a trade yesterday. It seems to be handmade. It has a bone nut and very nice construction. It plays in tune. Does anyone recoginize the handiwork here? It has no markings. It may just be a pet project someone did. Thanks for the input!
oak is not a common wood for small instruments because of its weight. The primitive stringing through tor tailpiece leads me to believe it might be a very nicely crafted home built.
Sounds pretty good! I picked it up in a trade recently. I was really impressed at the construction of it in person. I plan on putting it up on the local craigslist. Any idea what something like it would go for? $30, $60, $100, $5?
