    Re: Electric mandolin: Help!

    I have both the Eastwood Mandocaster and the Epiphone Mandobird. In all honesty, I'd reccomend both. I switch back and forth as to which one is my favorite about every 6 months or so, and to be...

    Re: Mandobird stuff

    Okay, kiddos. My mandobird has a new trick... When the E strings are plucked (open--fretting kills the problem), the bottom (outside) one sounds really brassy and has about 2 seconds worth of...

    Re: Eastwood Mandocaster evals?

    Hi! I got mine on instrumentalley.com, and all I had to do was tune it when it came out of the box. If you watch for 'em, they'll occasionally run an ebay deal so you can pick one up for like 20 or...

    Re: Women with Mandolins

    Re: great non mandolin songs on mandolin

    My band, Frown Pow'r, does a silly little version of "Love Fool" by The Cardigans, circa 1996. If you listen to the original, the odd beeping in the background is what I do, with some guitar-ish...

    Paris Swing?

    Okay, folks. Found a pretty good price on a Paris Swing F-style. It's slightly less than $300, and it's from a guy I know who lives a few states away. Should I take the deal? Why and why not?

    Re: Amplifiers

    I play through a 40 watt 2x12 Sunn Solarus combo from 1968 with a '68 1x15 Sunn extension cab. See my post on the "Epiphone Mandobird VIII vs. Eastwood Mandocaster" thread. Sunns don't get nearly...

    Re: Eastwood mandocaster vs Mandobird VIII

    I own both of the mandolins in question. Eastwood is better as far as sound, comfort, durability, and intonation, however it can be a tone monster, as it's a bright little critter. Epiphone is a...
