    I like this restoration in particular. Many restoration projects on CZcams actually rebuild a device to a point where even the original manufacturer would not recognize it anymore. Your restoration does not hide the age or aging of the instrument and keeps much of the old character, patina and style. It is a beautiful piece of work. And very well recorded as well.

    looked like all it needed was a new top, back, sides, neck, fretboard, bridge, nut, tuners, tailpiece and strings....amazing work!

    Здорово! Как прекрасно когда люди не убивают, а сохраняют свою историю! Я, правда, не Вивальди, на таких инструментах никогда не игнрал! Вообще не музыкант, могу только на 6 струнной ритм играть. Но, в любой компании под шашлыки могу поднять настроение!

    I love that just because it started out life as 'cheap' didn't mean it was junk to be tossed. It's much lovelier, in more natural stains.

You definitely turned this into a gorgeous instrument again! Stunning job! 😊❤ Congratulations on your next summer marriage 😊

    Thank you for bringing back to life this instrument. Even though some comments said it was originally a cheap instrument coming from a family with many children we also got a lot of joy and fun from the less expensive things. I am sure that if that mandolin could talk it would tell of many hours of fun and laughter and maybe even a love aria or two.
    Thanks for sharing this with us.

    Giusto precisare che questo strumento non é un "mandolino", ma una " mandola piatta francese a 4 corde doppie".
    Detto ciò, il recupero dello strumento e veramente soddisfacente, l'impegno é lodevole e il risultato è più che evidente. L'aspetto finale e la finitura restano piuttosto grezzi ma, ripeto, per essere uno strumento destinato alla discarica, il ridultato é eccellente😊
    It is fair to point out that this instrument is not a "mandolin", but a "French flat mandola with 4 double strings".
    Having said that, the recovery of the instrument is truly satisfactory, the effort is commendable and the result is more than evident. The final appearance and finish remain rather rough but, I repeat, for an instrument destined for landfill, the result is excellent.
