Nice new one, Leigh!
Darrel is a great guy and builds a nice instrument.
My 20" scale Octave sings. I can just imagine what a longer scale sounds like.

I owned a very nice BH Oval. It's the only Weber I've owned that I regret letting get out of my hands.
I tried most of the popular strings, but D'Add Flat Tops really seemed to be a perfect fit....
You betcha'! That may have been the way you were taught at some point and I certainly wouldn't argue your experience. :)
The way in which I was taught is the pocket relates to all of the elements...
I'd bet a shiny penny that this is a spoof. It might be a bassist who is really tired of guitarists who assume playing bass is a piece of cake. If you've been playing the bass for a few years you can...
I can add to the Flat Top parade; The loudest, yet very sweet sounding mando I've owned is my Arches FTO (flat Top Oval). It has a sharp, cutting tone. I currently have TI Flats on it and they...
Hey Karen,
I was able to talk to Dennis at TMS yesterday and he tells me he has dibs on the first one. It is complete, but he won't get it until it's done its' duty at the NAMM show.
I have to...
I know there was thread on this somewhere;

I'll bet it's a nice little player!:mandosmiley:
Very nice, Fellas'! Sounds great!
I hope you are able to keep it going.
Thanks, PJ. :mandosmiley:
A little more "Mandocentric" shot from the group the one above came from:

Clockwise from upper left:
1925 Gibson Ajr mandolin
Eastman DGM3 2-Pointer Mandola
Rozawood 2-Pointer...
Thought I'd spruce up one of the walls in the studio. Nice form and very functional! :grin:

I'm with Shaun. Unless your bike has a trade value of $500, or less, I wouldn't trade it. Caveat emptor, unless you plan on making it a keeper.
These are great little players and would probably...
Beautiful, Jim! I'd love to have a go on this fella'.
I really like the trap tailpiece as well. Both of my OM's have them and I wouldn't have anything else. They are as stable as any other I've...
I have posted this thought I've had a couple of times over the past couple of years:
This is a pic of an Eastman El Rey guitar I owned a couple years ago:

It was very neck heavy and...
I have had a long builder/player relationship with Roman Zlajicek, owner/builder for Rozawood and he tells me all of the CR builders are a pretty tight-knit community, so if you can contact any one...
Well, you've been playing for awhile so I think you would probably benefit from John McGann's OM book. It's not for the beginner, but even though you are new to OM your dues paid on the guitar will...
If it wasn't for the BC pick, I would be using ProPlec.
I'll go ahead and admit to my blasphemous ways; I have never really liked Gibson mandolins. They just never really did anything for me. There were a couple over the years that were nice, but the...
Congrats, Phil!
That's about the best deal anyone who is looking to try out an OM could get. You did a good job!
The TC isn't a $3000+ one-off, handmade legend, but it is plenty good enough...
For the life of me, I can't figure out why more people don't know about Eva and her sisters.
I have to admit I am pretty spoiled. If I have MAS, I can ride my bicycle about 5 miles to visit Jeff at Acoustic Vibes. Then, if I really am jones'in for something I can hop in the car for the...
My wife's first career was as an artist. She has since moved into the field of Law, but she has recently been getting back to her first love; her art. She got ahold of a little sketch book and is...
Ummm... Today is May 1st, not April 1st. You're a month late.... :cool:
I played a couple back a few years ago. A local music store, who are also HUGE Fender dealers carried them while they were available. They are one in the same with the TC's Johnson's, Gold Tone,...
