Weber Mandolins


Recently I purchased a new mandolin. It is a Weber mandolin model Gallatin F-style. It's a gorgeous instrument. I really enjoy playing it and use it to praise the Lord each week.

The Weber string instrument factory is located in Logan, Montana and my oldest daughter and I had the opprotunity to tour it two weeks ago. It was fascinating! Bruce Weber the founder and owner personally gave us the tour. We found out that Bruce is a nice gracious Christian man.

It was interesting to learn that Weber is the largest maker of mandolins in the United States. We also learned that Weber instruments are shipped all over the world. You can view the pictures of our tour on my facebook page. You can see the Weber mandolin website at http://www.soundtoearth.com/ and they are on facebook as well.

During the tour Bruce Weber showed us his company logo which is the Jesus fish intertwined with a heart (Jesus in your heart). What a fantastic idea. What a great witnessing tool for Christians who play Weber mandolins.
