Guitars for Mandolin Players
While not stricktly a mandolin player per se, I am playing a lot more mandolin lately. After playing a lot of mandolin in a row, I find my guitars a little awkward, size wise. This is not even dreads but Taylor GAs. Anybody else notice this? Any guitar recommendations to deal with this.

Very fun and different would be the Jerry Jones shorty. Not an acoustic but I cannot imagine many guitar players that could do anything with it. Seems made for a mandolin player.

See if you can find a Tacoma 12 string papoose. They are tuned to A have been described as a mandolin for guitar players. Maybe they would also be a guitar for mandolin players.

I play more mandolin than guitar (though I'm trying to remedy that
 ) and I do find it difficult to deal with the size of a guitar. My main guitar is 00 size, and that isn't bad size-wise, but probably not dissimilar from your Taylors.Perhaps a parlour guitar? Fliss
