Tuners, tailpiece & strings onto #40, so all three are now playable (in the broadest sense)
the two As are the most mando sounding. the pinned bridge changes the way the sound is generated and although they all sound good so far, the two As are the ones I'd choose if I wanted something traditionally mandolin sounding!!
the rest of the week will be spent setting up all three. intonation, fretwork, oiling the fretboards, trussrod covers, strap buttons
here's a family portrait.
