Violins have been using tone bars and sound posts for hundreds of years. They are used for strength and contribute to the sound of the instrument. I see no reason why mandolins should be any...

Let's see. Left Handed Pianos. - Never seen one.
Left handed Fiddles - Nope.
Left handed trumpets? Nope again.
Left handed upright basses - Rumoured, but never seen.

Left handed...

No problem shipping south, folks. I just shipped a few sets to the US. No sweat.
Send me your address. 3 sets left.

I'm glad they are going to folks who can use them. They are wonderful...

Can I add one more thing to all the good advice here?
In Ear Monitors. If you can break the chain between the monitor and the top of the instrument, you will benefit greatly. 'Course everyone...

Mike;
I have no trouble buying Waverly tuners and other stuff from StewMac. Call 'em up.

As a long time happy and supportive dealer of Calton and a recently frustrated and disappointed dealer I am actively searching out a new supplier. Karura has my interest. However in the 20+ years...

Case covers have the added advantage of making the case look non-descript. They also allow a case to slide through the baggage handing machinery (if they insist you check it). The little nubby and...

Keep you good vocal mics away from smokers. It is unbelievable how much tar is still floating around in their lungs even 20 minute after a smoke. It sticks like crazy to diaphragms. I showed a...

Handling charges are bogus. Just a way to make a few bucks and cheat the customer. ..... But I'm not bitter!

Calton ships their cases to me in cardboard boxes. - no packaging or boxes...

The EndPin as supplied by Weber is a separate item. It is not attached to the tailpiece. It uses an expancing piece of rubber tubing that expands as you tighten the knurled 'button'. Kinda like a...

If this has been discussed, can someone send me the link. If not, I would be interested in hearing a report or two. My experience has been very positive with the Venue. It may be the perfect thing.

My vote is the Dunlop Turbo tune. Fits EVERYTHING. And it can be disassembled to fit an electric screwdriver. hard to find, though.

Outstanding, Mike. Good information.

Thanks much.

Mike has a point, piezos tends to have extremely high output impedance. In almost all cases it seems to be this that causes much of the nastiness attributed to this class of pick-up. I don't know...

I would have thought so till I saw the jack. It is better than anything I've ever seen at that size. Rest your mind. It's tough. Certainly as tough as many of the lesser1/4" jacks offered on many...

Gotta agree with everything I read here. I almost never compress instruments like the mando, unless they are such evil sounding things that no EQ can cure them. Then I might mess with them a little...

It does amaze me these days that the quality for $1K is certainly better than it was 20 or 30 years ago. I think it's fabulous. Is it as good as a handmade instrument from North America (or even...

Once I mixed a show with The Foggy Hogtown Boys and used their KM-184s, I knew I had to get a few of my own. 10 Neumanns later, I'm a happy bunny. Shows with good players go much much smoother.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Weber "Vintage" series. The "Vintage A" has become one of my best selling mandolins. I have an old Snakehead Gibson and the Weber has some of the character of...

DGM-1 Eastman is way better than it has a right to be!! I'm impressed. The DGM-2 is nice as well.

Thanks for the input guys. I just ordered a bunch of straps from Kenny. I'm very glad to hear that I won't be disappointed. - Not that I expected to be, but it's always nice to hear in advance...

Buy a ukulele!!! You'll never be without music again.
