I use a Countryman cardioid Isomax II and a Countryman Choir mic cardioid. The Choir mic comes stock with a higher gain rating. The Isomax can be ordered in three different gain ratings. The medium...
Martin SP, but they quit making mandolin strings!? I have a few sets left. They are 80/20 bronze, not phosphor, with a gold E. They sound great new and last. Hopefully Martin bring them back.
I...
Hello, I love your playing style. Nice video.
I looks like a magnetic pickup you are using? The electric shock can be dangerous. This problem is more common with electric guitars than with...
Lowering the the gain/input and turning up the volume/output helps somewhat. And cutting the bass and mid tone controls on your amp. Try comparing the sound of a microphone hanging over the speaker...
Every few months I get the "which pick" bug, and spend time comparing all sorts of picks. I always fall back to the Dunlop Jazztone 207. You gotta try them!
Maybe you maen 4, 2, 3?
I suppose a proper jig is d-d-u, d-d-u. 6/8 time. Maybe your tune calls for another pattern.
At a Radim Zenkl workshop he said to practice all 15 different patterns. I...
"That is why Neumann actually make microphones specifically designed for live use"
The KMS 105 by Neumann can be had for $500. if you shop carefully. I got mine through Sweetwater. The quality of...

Using a pickup and a microphone together works well. Each one reinforces the other.
Going direct to soundboard with a DI box works, I prefer to use an amp with a microphone over the...
Does the pickup work?
I so want one of those...
I wouldn't sand, especially wouldn't stell wool. Steel fibers can shed into the wood. Sanding may likely make for an uneven surface.
I have had great results with walnut oil. Use a smooth cloth...
My first mandolin was an 1918 A model Gibson. Very sweet sound, but the top was sinking, so I traded it in in for a 1995 F5G master model. A Bruce Weber signed Bozeman made F5G. The sound was much...
I sincerely apologize for being harsh or rude. I can be reckless to a fault, to direct. And humorous at the wrong time, sorry. I am a generous and kind person inside. An idealist.
The two weeks off...
Martin recently discontinued their 11-40 gauge 80/20 set. Shame.
I used J75's for years before trying the Martin strings.
I think that a teacher should help you learn to read notation, music. As well to correct your posture. Posture is important. I think the teacher should be focused during your lesson minutes and keep...
Howdy Dawg!
I am very happy with my J5, thank you.
I would also like to hear about your cross picking technique, tremolo. Something in your tremolo is unmistakably "Grisman", and your versatility...
I'd like to hear more about Mesa amps?
Those Carr amps look real nice too.
I have an old Dean Markley K-50 and a Roland Jazz-120. The Roland has awesome reverb settings, and works well with a...
Lots of tabs here.

Garcia's song writing style often included unique and interesting chord and key changes.
Barbara Lamb (fiddler) recorded Sally Goodin with Tim O'Brien playing mandolin. Her playing is exceptional.
"Ducks on the Millpond" by Barbara Lamb is the CD title.
The monotony of one-five-one...
Forward relief could be the answer. To much relief from what you describe. After dealing/adjusting the truss rod then check that your bridge isn't leaning forward.
good luck!
I saw the band perform on Sunday at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. Each instrument had it's own mic installed, and each musician (except bassist) also had his own stand mounted mic, a hand held...

IKA Cases are worth a look. I have a shaped fiddle case and love it. Very strong but light, airtight seal, nice wood inside, and a "real" key lock.
Not sure what they use, not fiberglass or CF.

I like using a Countryman Choir mic for a few reasons. First of course, it sounds good. It compares to a Shure Beta 87 or 58 in sound quality, but because it can mount on your instrument the volume...
I like to play loud to.
You might have better results by adding a microphone from your amp cabinet so you have two channels into the soundboard. Also turning your preamp gain down so the pickup...
