Buy: JazzMando.com Inaugural T-shirt
Now considered to be a collector's item...

To celebrate the recent unveiling of the newly renovated jazzmando.com website, we introduced this dandy apparel, the Inaugural "JazzMando shirt." (Site launched, March 2005)

A navy blue Gildan "Ultra Cotton" fabric, adorned with the former opening page of the website, this graphic includes the text, "Jazzmando.com, for the curious jazz mandolinist," and features a graphic cut from the ultra hip jazz ax, the blue Rigel CT-110.

Two classics donned by mandolinist-extraordinare Scott Gates: a 1924 Loyd Loar mandolin, and a commemorative JazzMando t-shirt. Maybe a Loar isn't in your future, but a JazzMando T-shirt is certainly in the cards.
