Looking good!

It's hard to beat the Brown and Big Pink albums, but the other ones are very good in their own way. Stage Fright should be up there--lots of great tunes and tasteful playing on Robbie's part. I've...

No, to Fender it was the Fender Electric Mandolin. Mandocaster is player's vernacular and that's how Eastwood jumped in to use it.

Nope, no pedals. Again, I'd rather be using a Marshall 50 watt plexi with a FuzzFace, an EchoPlex, and a Univibe, but modeling amps have come a long way and are great for practice and the occasional...

Dang, I'd like a little Jim Richter in my gig bag. It'd take a load off of the big Jim Richter.

Another vote for Wheel.

cheap Mustang III modeling. I'm a vintage tube guy, but I bought this to have a high powered amp with effects for the occasional rock gig. also a great practice amp. sound is a standard preset.

Standard mando tuning. Though I'm not a fan of non-tube guitar amps (except the Pignose), the amp is a Fender Mustang III modeling amp. I don't have any high powered amps, as I prefer 20 to 25 watt...

I've actually tweeted it to them, so let's see if they're brave enough to use it :)

The Mando-Strat is as good as any electric mandolin I've owned--old or new. It is a steal (I paid $250 for mine through Music123) and the best buy in an emando. I owned an original '63 and this is...

New (reissue) Mando-Strat. Very good reissue much like the old '63 I had.

Good call. Goes to show my Dr Who history is not as good as Douglas Adams. Resistance is futile.

Actually, Eddie, it sort of is. There was a wonderful Hendrix bootleg I had years ago of him jamming in a Greenwich club, maybe right before going to London. The name of the bootleg: "Woke up this...

It's actually mando-Geekdom + Star Trek geekdom + Hitchhiker's Guide geekdom. The Vogons beat the Borg by a few years with the "Resistance is Useless" (or Futile, choose your alien race):

I really don't understand the naysayers. We each have personal likes and dislikes. Though it may not meet your high demands, there is no need to disparage it. Admittedly, though I have always...

Ordered mine. having owned an original mint condition '63, I'm glad to see a reissue as the originals have gotten price prohibitive. I liked my '63 but couldn't justify keeping it when the vintage...

Hi Lock

Your breath is ok. So you seek divinity. Let me lead you up my rock god stairway and if you hear a bustle in the hedgerow, it's just the May queen.

The J Bovier is a good mandolin. ...

Gary, we need to pick some time. Thinking of you on this chilly day. hope all is fine up your way.

Richter Mandolin is now available for Kindle through Amazon. As there are free Kindle reader apps for almost all platforms--including Kindle, Mac, PC, and iPad--this should help those on non-ipad...
