Chris Cornell
Turns out that the late Soundgarden and Audioslave frontman was
also a mandolin player. The cut "Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart"
from his solo album Higher Truth is built around a demo
track Cornell recorded with a mandolin, possibly the Tele-style
acoustic/electric in the photo. (I would love to know
who built that mandolin, if you have any insight.)
