    I just picked up a Fiddlershop Concert violin (#2 in the video below), my first violin. I'm just assuming that I can use my scales, chords and arpeggio books for mandolin with the violin?

    Re: Morris A4 Has A Surprising Flaw

    There's no finish on the bottom of the bridge. Honestly though, it doesn't bother me at all because I don't plan on selling it. It fits me and my playing style not to mention it's beautiful to look...

    Re: Looking For Several Genres Of Mandolin

    I'm also going to learn this version. I wish I had music for it that showed all of his chord voicings during the verse. Slowing it down will help, good tip and I'm glad you all appreciated the post....

    Re: Looking For A Decent A Style w/Oval

    Well I received the Morris and I love it! :mandosmiley: Seeing as it came with an armrest, which I've never had... the first thought was... "That looks like a chin rest on a violin... it's tuned like...

    I just received a reply on the Morris but looked at the ad again and he's removed the 2 armrest and extra tuners. Different pic also (1st one looked better IMO).

    I've received a response about the Red Valley but holding out for the Morris. Not sure why they haven't responded. Nothing in Spam. I may just hold off and see what comes up.
