I use to take lessons from an old time guy out at the 5th string on Pleasantburg Dr. They can point you in the right direction.

Thanks Exude....They are on my list to call today. Are you in the Greenville area?

I agree, go to 5th String music store on Pleasantburg...Susan Snyder, the owner, will point you in the right direction. I think they have a guy there that teaches mando.

I have asked some of the mando players in the better local bands (like Wooden Nickel Band and 5th String Band) if they teach, but they don't...

BTW, I live in Simpsonville. I'd consider myself intermediate and play mainly bluegrass, but I'd be glad to show you some of what I've learned...

Thanks,

Greetings Brian...I'm in Simpsonville area too....I've been looking for someone just to get together and pick with, and haven't had a lot of luck....I'm a 46 yr old beginner...started taking guitar lessons last November for the first time in my life..wanted to concentrate on bluegrass, and I'm making some progress there....but, since I like bluegrass, I decided to get a mandolin and learn some of that too. Nothing I like better than sitting around having a couple of beers and picking a little........Get in touch if your interested.

Wow, I didn't realize there were so many mandolin players
around here! Can anyone reccomend an instructor around
the Charlotte/Gastonia area of NC?

Thanks,

Jon
