Hey guys,
Im looking for an electro-acoustic mandolin with a humbucker pickup. I've been searching all over the internet, but all I could find was mandolins with singe coils in it. Do you guys know where I can get one? Or give me the name of a mandolin that has this? I live in the Netherlands and I can't find anything here.
Here's a video of John Paul Jones playing a mandolin with a humbucker:
Thanks!

There are several places that you can try:-
Firstly, try manndolins.com/index.htm - he makes some beautiful electric and acoustic mandolins, and does custom ones too.
Secondly try the pages of emando.com/ , they list many makers of electric mandolins.
Thirdly, try making your own, if you are handy with wood. You can get an old or cheap electric mandolin and install a humbucker pickup yourself, and try it out. It won't cost you much and it is fun.
Then if you still want to go in that direction go to someone like Jonathan Mann , and talk to him about what you like and want ( you pay for what you get).
There is another option, but these should give you something to think about for now.
