Wow, a lot of good ideas, paul==ouch ! I avoid power tools--mainly because growing up in a family of ten kids my father was always building an addition or rearranging the house and i learned to hate...
jim,
I like the slide idea --hadn't thought of that-- maybe put the tele or the martin in an open tuning and play it on my lap-- it would be a lot of noise but I could fantasize I'm like Kelly jo...
Hey man, you're my kind of guy. I've been at it a lot longer than that and still I stink--but heck its about moments. I wish I knew more people who suck-- everybody i know who plays is pretty good...
yesterday, throwing batting practice to my almost 12 yoa son, he nailed a line drive back at me. I got my glove up to shield my neck but not in position to catch it. The ball hit my left hand index...
I've been disappointed in the bluegrass station, its subjective these days but a lot of what I hear doesn't sound like bluegrass to me. I hardly listen to it , unfortunately because that was to be a...
I have an A model my lovely bride gave to me as a wedding present 23 years ago. I wish I knew the model #. Its had some work. The bridge collapsed about eight years ago (my fault-- overtightened...
having grown weary of my bad timing i recently-2 weeks ago- started using a metronome especially because i began guitar lessons.i've got a Sabine Zipbeat. I just set it to 2 beats. It has a very...
If you have an ipod get a Belkin Tune Talk. Its a stereo recorder that records right to the ipod. I got one and record my guitar lessons right to my nano and its really pretty amazing quality and you...

The Zoom looks like the simpler device, which is an important issue as I basically use the computer to check email and visit this site. Do I have to get other softwear or is that only if I want to...
Look no further than Roland White's web site and book.

I read about the Zoom H2 and it seems pretty nifty. But when I tried to see one at Guitar Center, which doesn't carry it, they of course showed me the Boss Micro BR, which also seems pretty cool, but...
One of the best concert experiences of my life was Norman and Nancy Blake with no amplification. It was a small venue, maybe seating for 100 or so. I was just amazed by the whole performance but the...
I downloaded the mp3 a week ago and burned (well my daughter did it all for me) and have listened to it at least 15 times-- mostly in the car. Its a small delight. I've always enjoyed Sebastion's...
Elderly has the soundtrack mandolin book
I have been very happy with my Flatiron performer for a few years now, with occassional yearning for a Collings,but that passes without incident. The bigger problem is lately I've developed a wish...
I have no idea when it was released, but Ry Cooder's newest " My name is Buddy" features among a great array of talents--Roland White. My first i-tunes download--well worth the ribbing my thirteen...

Well, Arthur--I don't know you and don't want to be pushy, but how about a picture and/or clip of that little gem? 'Talk about a...

chances are good that with a mandolin of that quality in the house he's also got a pretty darn good security system
I have a Nashville built Performer A, that aside, isn't anything that puts more mandolins in more hands a good thing ?

Thanks for the info. I think I'll order the Horne/Fugate series as it seems like its getting great reviews.

Music Theory for Modern Mandolin by Thomas Ohmsen is described as a college level course in music theory for the mandolin. I get lost really quickly when people start talking theory so I thought...
