    Re: No Gibson reps at Telluride Bluegrass Festival

    Re: Whats Wrong?

    It is just someone's interpretation of what something should sound like you all. We all have a little of it in us. Just imagine when we are gone what bluegrass will have evolved into. Galaxygrass....

    You can twist those intelli tuners around so they are barely noticable. If you are close you will see them. The only live touring professional mandolin player I know kept one on his headstock turned...

    Re: Recommend Mandolin Stand

    You have my interest on the K-38. That was the earlier problem, the mandolin was just low and easy to get into. I am 6'3" tall so the K-38 might be tall enough for me to notice. The base of the k-38...

    Good luck on your search. Try a...

    Re: Gospel survey

    Bluegrass gospel will always be a mainstay of any bluegrass event here in the south. Like someone stated earlier, you can only sing so many songs about love, lust, and murder. You eventually sing...
