August 6, 2007 | James Condino in Mandolin Magazine

Congratulations to friend and mandolin innovator James Condino for the feature story in the latest (Summer) issue of Mandolin Magazine. In the well-penned David McCarty article, James gives us more details of his history as well as insight into his building philosophies.

Since we reviewed two of his mandolins last year in our Builder's Spotlight, he's moved from the west coast to Asheville, NC. Expect to hear more from him as he is now assigned writing duties in a regular column in the magazine.
