 May 10, 2008 | Joe Mendel Builder
Congratulations to fellow Mandolin Sessions writer and new builder Joe Mendel on the launch of his new business, Mendel Frets. A renown Greater St. Louis area string repairman, Joe's work has been highly sought after by regional professionals, and now he's turning his attention and talents to his own creations.
Currently, he offers a line of high end Octave Mandolins, but looks to expanding into mandolas and other fretted instruments with his own signature ideas, influenced heavily by such industry giants as Michael Lewis, Peter Sawchyn, and Chris Baird. Permeating his design are three driving elements, simplicity, functionality, and attractiveness.
Best to you Joe as you pursue the best in wood, frets, and strings.
