This kit includes everything needed to build a Mandolin except for the body. The neck is Okume with a Walnut fretboard. Binding and face and side fret markers are included. The scale length is 13 3/4 inches. The neck also includes a truss rod. A compensated and adjustable Walnut bridge is included along with a chrome tailpiece. Tuners and a truss rod cover are included.  Four pairs of stings are provided including .012, .016, .026 and .032 sizes. Tuning is GDAE.

Note: Keep in mind the tension created by 8 strings is substantial, all boxes will need additional reinforcement to handle the added stress. Make sure the top where the neck is connected is thick (close to 3/8" is ideal) and rigid. You will note that two hanger bolts are used to provide and solid connection between the neck and the box.

Great mandolin kit

Great mandolin kit for building your own custom mandolin. I made mine from solid mahogany, top, back and sides.

Great kit, would absolutely buy again

Literally everything you need to make a mando but the body. I needed a quiet mando to practice, so I made a hard body; I was going to try and go electric, but decided to keep it simple.

mandolin kit review

I was pleasantly surprised with how complete and versatile the kit is. I am building a solid body electric mandolin. I will be ordering another for future projects.
