    Re: Need some advice...

    Hey guys,

    I tried looking for some opinions myself but there isn't a huge wealth of info on these. Would a used Weber Y2K be a reasonable upgrade? I know they were Weber's entry level model but I...

    Re: Need some advice...

    Thanks for the replies everyone! You're right. I've decided now to keep the Kentucky, buy an upgrade, and have Sim look over both for me. Now the hunt for a second mandolin begins... And I already...

    Need some advice...

    So I'm still playing the Kentucky KM-140S that I bought a few years ago with advice from this forum. I like it a lot still, but I'm stuck.

    Whenever I play it now, if I let off any of the pressure...

    Re: Where to get a waldzither?

    Looks like Dave Hynds may be my best bet. Good price and guaranteed from a player. Thanks! I couldn't find any on ebay originally but I didn't think to check the German ebay.

    Where to get a waldzither?

    I'm interested in learning this instrument, but playing it almost seems like a forgotten art, hardly any info out there at all! Consequently, it's hard to find any for sale as well. This one I've...

    Re: Merry Christmas!

    Merry Christmas to everyone on this helpful and friendly forum. Wouldn't be enjoying my mandolin nearly as much without all of your help.

    Teleforo Julve 12-string mandolin

    I saw this mandolin for sale, and it doesn't look anything like the other 12-string mandolins I've seen before. It's about 24 inches long. Made by Teleforo Julve. How exactly would this thing sound,...

    Re: Identify this bowlback/tater bug?

    Thanks for the info you guys, and for the laughs. I told my friend what he most likely had, and he thanks everyone for that. He's gonna continue to hang it on his wall as a sentimental piece.

    Identify this bowlback/tater bug?

    Alright, I know someone who has an old mandolin that was his grandfathers, and it has a story. One night, his grandfather was playing the mandolin in a bar, and a fight broke out. Someone got on the...
  15. Re: New to Mandolin (and strings), which of these should I get?

    Thanks for the resources you guys, I've learned a lot from them so far.

    It is a Kentucky KM-140S. I really like the sound. I got it for $150 with the case.
  16. Re: New to Mandolin (and strings), which of these should I get?

    Good news, everyone. I got my Kentucky just a little over an hour ago. I can't wait to start playing. Thanks everyone who helped influence my decision. I really appreciate it.


    Now, where to get...
  17. Re: New to Mandolin (and strings), which of these should I get?

    UPDATE: Still scraping up the money to buy the Kentucky, but today at a flea market I saw a mandolin hanging on the wall. Turns out it was a Gibson, and the price was 12k. I had a conversation with...
  18. Re: New to Mandolin (and strings), which of these should I get?

    Thanks for the input everyone. I decided on the Kentucky. Over the Kay because I like the sound more (and because the Kay doesn't have the truss rod), and over the Johnson because I do want an...

    Thanks for the replies you guys. Upon further research, I saw this: http://www.amazon.com/Johnson-Mandolin-Style-Holes-Sunburst/dp/B0002H0KG0 It's a Johnson by Rogue. I've heard to stay away from...

    Hey,

    I'm a woodwind player who wants to start playing mandolin. I've researched a bit, but still wouldn't consider myself knowledgeable on which brands to buy, good prices, etc. At a local antique...
