I gotta say, Robert consistently gives truthful, accurate and honest answers. Thank you again.
This. Your sound should not be an after thought. When you complain about bad sound and then refuse to pay for some one good, you are just adding to the lack of respect for folks who are good at...
Next time you are in town, come to the winery for a visit. It's good fun and the acoustics are great.
And yes, I have been trying to coach Ben along. For 30 years now.
Aw man, that was mighty sharp of you to catch that! I better tone things down a bit before I cause too much treble.
At this point, I have to bring up the Rigel naming. Their Highest tier instrument, the G-5, was so named as it was a whole step above the F-5. Suits me,

Great resource for all kinds of chord charts/
I just may love this one the most.
The Jazz is definitely made for Starks.
When I purchased mine from a nice gent in Az, he had Mittels on it and complained he was not bonding with the instrument. I could see why. It really...
Yeah, those guys are missing two strings! It's gotta make it tough to play anything worth while. Also, they don't spend NEARLY as much time tuning as we do.
Suckers.
Yeaaaahhhhh, the new video is good and all, but I like his tone with the Rigel G5 better!!!:grin:

Great live set with some cool mando content.
By odd coincidence, my 2 mandos are both 2005 vintage.
In the case of the Rigel G5, the 2005 was a year before they had to close doors, but at the height of the boom. It is one of few, maybe 18 or...
What ever it is, I bet it blows!!!
There. It had to be said.
Ted is wise.
1. Rigel G5
2-10 Others
Whew. That was easier than I thought....
"Average player desperately seeking over priced third tier mandolin as I am thinking it will make me a better player and attractive to females."
Well, the truth hurts.
These are are not necessarily distressed, but they are most probably upset that i own them....

Well thank God we can now put the Gil vs. Loar question to rest. He plays the CT110 listed above and the world goes back to spinning correctly and sounding...

What do I not know about this situation that makes this number less than surreal?
Please? I accept whatever it is, I just want to know. Plain and...
Well, at least we can all agree on that fairly rapid down turn in tone that happened when he stopped playing his Rigel CT110.
Sad day, sad day indeed.
Is Sim giving up as a luthier of Mandolins? It seems to intimate that.....

Anybody have info on this situation?
Thomasik-Infeld Mittels. Go for it.
A set per year and so nice on your fingers.
How does Walnut sound?

2. Nutty!
3. Makes a nice shell.
