"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

October 18, 2007 | Gypsy's Mandolins stoops to new lows... (an octave!)

Just out from Gypsy's Music, the Gypsy's Octave Mandolin. The new OMs follow their established design philosophy of Gypsy's mandolins and mandolas introduced earlier this year at the Winter 2006 NAMM show, an attention to volume, tone and playability. This series of instruments is similarly compact (20" scale, 11-3/4" body at the widest), yet maintain the tone and volume required for live unplugged acoustic enviorments.

The instruments include the company's signature overlay, Grover tuners, mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, adjustable ebony bridge w/ bone saddle, and exclusive tailpiece. Pricing ranges from $720 to 1250, depending on tonewood composition and design level of bindings.
