September 29, 2008 | New from "The Loar"

New website facelift from the Music Link, creators of the Paris Swing mandolins and recently "The Loar" series guitars and mandolins. Included in the mandolin section is an interesting 5 minute video tour of the design philosophies of their flagship hand-carved LM-600-VS Florentine model.

Theloar.com has 360-degree views of all mandolin and guitar models, detailed views of unique specifications, and a user-friendly "Buy It Now" feature that leads visitors directly to an online store's product page for purchase. The website also has a slideshow illustrating the hand carved process, as well as a video walk-through of each instrument's features and sound by Travis Atz, The Loar’s Director of Product Development.

Enjoy: The Loar
