Sorry to hijack this further since the OP doesn't intend to check a mandolin, but for security reasons you can no longer lock your case before checking it. I was recently told by two well-known...
Is that a maple back? Mine also has a maple back, I'm curious now how many maple-backed A-jr's are out there.
I have a '24 Jr that I really love. Mine is a little cleaner (little play wear) and has all of it's original parts, but I paid a bit more for it. If I were you I'd jump on it.
Are we talking about a bass guitar, or a double bass? Lefty double basses are hard to come by, and they are almost never good instruments. While the strings have the same note names "E", "A", "D",...
I think I've told this story before, but it's a good one
I went to Mandolin Brothers with a good friend of mind a few years ago. I was on a serious shopping trip and he was not. We were in the...
I don't doubt for a second that there are still cheaters in the peloton. But with "clean teams" like Columbia and Garmin-Chipotle showing well, I think there's still hope for cycling to have a...
You know, there have been some really exciting breaks so far to liven up the usual monotony of the flat stages. Yesterdays early break stayed away until the final straightaway.

We used to talk about this every Summer. There have been some exciting stages and results so far. Is anyone else watching?
Bad days happen to everyone. I do my very best to give myself one day "off" from music weekly. Sometimes that day off imposes itself on me when I begin to practice, but can't make anything work. On...
You can absolutely use a single transmitter for two (or more) receivers. The only downside is that you only get one monitor mix. Buddy is right about the earpieces, don't cheap out and make sure that...
Just a reminder, the show starts at 9pm, and it's $8 to get in. Guests to include Mark Fain and Andy Leftwich. Come on out if you can.

Hey everybody, the Dixie Bee-Liners are having our CD release show next Friday, April 18th at the world-famous Station Inn here in Nashville. We'll be celebrating the April 15th release of "Ripe"....
If only he could sing he could have a great career in music.
You could see if Randy would be willing to work his magic. That could be really cool.

Those ART pre's can usually be found for $30 or under. I have two and I love them.

I know what you mean. I keep hoping that someone will paint my house just to help out, but all the painters I talk too want me to pay them. I can't believe it!
Sorry to sound so flip here, but I'm...
It reminds me of Tenacious D. , hilarious.
I'll second Bob Altman. I played three of his F-5's at SPBGMA and they were all gems.
I think you should at least talk to an attorney to see if you stand a chance of getting paid. It would be worth it to me to spend a few bucks to know what my options were. Good luck.

You know, I once played a mandolin that had two wings grafted onto each side of the neck to make it wider. The fretboard had been replaced to accommodate the extra width of the neck. You could see...
I usually stay out of the mean-spirited threads here, but before you go making fun of someone like Sandy Cherryholmes you should think about it. With a little research you would learn that the...
The KSM44 is a KILLER mic. If you don't want to keep it you'll get a good price for it on ebay. Or, you could use it to start your recording career. It's much more appropriate as a studio mic than a...
Frog Went A Courtin'. I love that one.
Jamie is right, you need to get it warm SLOWLY. If you have an unheated garage (or any cool part of your house) move it there first. You should probably wrap it in a blanket or sleeping bag first....
