Very fun instrumant, kind of like playing a 12 string guitar/violin hybrid thing. It seems easy to pick up though, and sounds pretty nice. Ill post a picture of this thing in a bit though, its made by Kay, and has a huge ugly headstock. Looks like its straight out of the 50s:P
Edit: To give this a point, post your nonguitar instruments!
Edit2: Pictures

my father also has one.

Its an instrument for old men, or so they say ¬_¬

Thats really cool.

I use to have a mandolin, but I sold it on ebay for $60.

Don't worry, it was a piece of crap. Mostly.

No it's not. Notice the mandolin on the lower left.

....I see the mandolin, but I'd rather not...... hot musician girls......

There's a mandolin collecting dust somewhere in my house. Maybe I should learn to play it.

Thats what I was thinking

I've met her. She is incredibly sexy.

She stole my violin!!!

Her leg looks funky. So does the mandolin, likes its halfmissing or something o.0
