impulse purchase

1995 Joe Foley mandolin

something to pick while waitin for Wilma…

Looks very nice! How’s it sound?

Nice looking Mando.

Divine… everything i thought it would be, actually.

Here’s the back:




yeah, that’s pretty much what i said to myself… :smiley:

Hey, I’ve got three whistles that I’ll trade you for it. :smiley:

That’s a mighty fancy headstock.

:laughing:
set me back a little more than the Washburn, let me tellya…

That’s a mighty fancy headstock.

that was the first thing my wife noticed… she can’t tell the difference in sound between the F style and the Foley, but she really liked the headstock (and the rosewood back).

My weakness is mandolins and hers is furniture, so i guess i’m not surprised.

Dude, congratulations. I had a Foley bouzouki for a while that was just about perfect – the guy makes unbelievable instruments.

That’s a pretty fine argument for impulsive thinking! You wouldn’t have the impulse to swap it for my spare 6-wt fly rod or anything like that?

Me want… :smiling_imp:
