Festival and Performer models had integrated fretboard extensions. None of the other models do.
The F5, A5 - Junior, Performer and Festival were all tone bar braced. The other models were...
I didn't see that question as trolling. If you come from a classical mandolin POV, there is no use of capos. She may have honestly not been aware.
Capo use is much more common in the folk...
I am so blessed...
In the parking lot today my neighbor living directly below me flagged me down and came over to say how much she loved the music I play!

Hi all,
I'm so excited by the new mandolin I just received from genius luthier, Oliver Apitius. In my opinion, there is no mandolin that is better suited to Jazz. And it plays like a dream. I...
Interesting survey.
Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be just one:)
Kate Wolf was another talent that was taken from us all too soon. She’s a staple in my music library and “Like A River” (the studio version) came up this morning. Thought I’d share a live version...

There’s really nothing in between. I have some mandolins with Golden Age, some with Gotoh, some with Rubners. The Rubners are good. But I’ve not seen many F style sets for sale. I like the Alessi...
Irving Berlin: "Always"
This is a 1925 song in waltz time by Irving Berlin, one of his best-known tunes. I have recorded it as an instrumental for two mandolins with tenor guitar backing, using...
