Instruments

1809 Stoss viola and a 1987 Dennis Alexander violin on each side of Tamara's Chuck Lee "Ovilla" banjo.

This mandolin (surrounded here by Tamara's 2009 crocus crop) was custom made in the fall of 2008 by Pete Hutchinson from the Gulf Coast of Texas. He finished making the instrument for Jamie in between the onslaught of Hurricanes Gustav and Ike.

The White Dove's maple flamed back reflecting the sheen of its oil varnish.
