| "Building instruments combines a lot of my interests:
design, engineering, fabrication, and last but not least, playing and listening
to music." As is the case with so many luthiers, Joseph Yanuziello
found an outlet for his widely varied skills in the fabrication of musical
instruments. His eye for clean lines, pleasing colour combinations
as well as his long experience working with pro musicians, have combined
in this line of electric mandolin-family instruments.
The Yanuziello electric mandolin, mandola, and
mandocello are designed as performance instruments for the player who wants
volume on stage without feedback. Mandolin family instruments all feature
hollow ultra light bodies and custom Lindy Fralin pickups.
As opposed to the 4 string configuration that
most electric mandolins utilize, the eight string set up gives these
instruments a sound that is much more like their acoustic counterparts! |
