Default New N K Forster Model GZ-HO

Over the years I've made a lot of these little beasts - 8 strings, tuned like an octave mandolin - GDAE.

This one is all done and ready to go off to Ireland. If you take a look at the bottom image you'll really see the HO (Howe Orme) cylinder top:









The build was documented over on the Mandolin Cafe forum.
