Thanks folks. Again, just curious who else makes a similar tone. Just curious about that "market".

Thanks folks. Again, just curious who else makes a similar tone. Just curious about that "market".
Thanks y'all.
@pheffernan.... yeah, can't pull the trigger now. But saw it and would love to get it.
@ccravens.... whew... I was wondering if that was a somewhat "apples to apples" comparison.
Hi,
So I recently played an older A-style Givens that sounded great. I loved how "woody" imho it sounded.
I think, maybe..., I got the same vibe from a 1985 Steve Carlson Flatiron A5. Woody and...
Thanks folks! The Pomeroy and Poe are very interesting.
The Pava F5 Satin is super interesting but the Pomeroy and Poe seem like a good value until I wanna spend more.
Ah okay. Thanks f5loar. 10-4 on the lacquer.
Gibson F5G sounds great if.. it had the radiused fretboard.
Hi, So I feel like pulling the trigger on an F5 and my budget is b/w $3000-5000.
I would like a radiused fretboard and maybe... if possible a varnish (or shellac for the Pava) finish.
Looking...
Thanks y'all. Will keep checking out the Satin F5 if tonally it's just as good.
Curiosity bump...........
1. Just to confirm... a Pava F5 Satin is just as good regarding just TONE and VOLUME as the higher end Pava models? Like this one?...
Curiosity bump... Looking at one for maybe $1900.
I have a Northfield NF-S currently. So wondering... if they grass will be greener. Thanks folks.
Thanks CWRoyds. And sorry to ask that question in this thread. That's why I started a fresh thread but I couldnt figure out how to delete the post in this thread. Whoops...
Anyways, def good info.
I know there's a TONS of threads comparing high end mandos...
But regarding JUST tone/volume/response and material wise (premium woods, varnish)..... but NOT caring about bling bling/trim, how...

Zombie thread bump for this question. Thanks y'all.
Hi, Im curious how loud these Montana (not Nashville) Flatirons are? Thanks folks.
I think you're right. Thanks folks.
Hi all,
Can anybody tell me what year a Flatiron mandolin would be with the serial #1108120046? Thanks a lot.
Here's some images. I dont think it's an Epiphone version. But not sure...
173935...
Hi y'all, So I had a Collings MT for years. Great mando, great neck. Easy to fly across the fretboard. Was like a little sports car.
After a couple of years, I was ready for a change in tone and a...
Thanks DavidKOS.
Yes, it's mind numbing how much is out there on "correct picking"... and how hidden using the harmonic minor/flat9/diminished over a i-V7 change is. A critical change/crossroads...
Played guitar/mando for 20+ years. Played almost every style.
If you have to choose your battles b/w learning "correct" picking patterns versus correct notes/scales to capture a genre/flavor......
Return of another zombie thread...
So I have a early 2000's Gibson F5G that feels pretty tight. As I get older, my left hand has been bothering me more and more (trying to stretch more). I lowered...
Bump for more opinions on these. Especially in regards to tone and maybe more volume for a Gibson F5G. Thanks.
Bump... to see if anybody else has compared a Collings MT (or MF) to a Nashville Flatiron Festival F/Gibson F5G (Derringer era 1999-2001 I believe...)? Curious in regards to volume... for playing...
Hi, can anybody tell me the date for the serial number of 11010010? Thanks!
I guess I'm wondering which one is louder... (not that louder is better).
