Welcome to mandolin building! The mandolin you’re about to build is in the vintage Army-Navy style. It’s an easy kit to build; we’ve designed the Campfire so that you can create a quality mandolin with a minimum of tools. You don’t need experience, either: the Campfire Mandolin is a great way to get your start in instrument building. When you’re done you’ll be happy to find that it sounds good, too!
