Custom Beartooth mandolin, #3104303,
fishing theme, fly
hook fret markers
and intricate fly
inlay on the scallop, herringbone purfling
on the body, fish inlay on the button and gold hardware.
Made for Major
Matt Thomas,
of
the United States Marines.
At a NAMM show, Bruce was wearing a tie with fishing flies imprinted on
it, which started a conversation about fishing between himself and a Craig
Fitzgerald. Bruce told Craig that if he was ever in Montana, that he
should look up Bruce and they would go fishing.
The next year, Craig took Bruce at his
word and came fishing, bringing Matt along the following year. That
was 7 years ago Matt has been here every summer since and says that
people ought to be careful who they invite up to fish, because they may
just keep coming back!
