  1. Re: Ordered a Northfield F5S, Received a Big Mon Wide Nut by Mist

    There would have always been that bit of guilt following that instrument, which would have taken away a lot of the enjoyment. Doing the right thing is always best. Congrats on a great instrument!

    Re: E String Blues.

    I’ve been going back and forth between D’Addario NBs and J74s. I string them as Jimmy suggest. Definitely at concert pitch. Seems odd.

    E String Blues.

    I’ve been breaking a lot of E strings lately while I’m tuning up. This has been on three different mandolins, so I’m doubtful it’s mandolin specific. I started to bring them to pitch slowly, a few...

    I am currently running a K&K PU into a Red Eye Twin Preamp. Our PA is pretty basic and I'm looking for an EQ pedal to dial in my tone a bit more. Any suggestions?

  18. Re: Holding on to your personal Holy Grail mandolin

    I'll never sell my LaPlant. Great mandolin, but it's also the fact that Lloyd LaPlant is one of the nicest humans I've met.

    Re: Golden Gate "Clown Barf" Extra Stiff Pick

    I really enjoy mine also. My 1916 Gibson A1 really comes to life using this pick. I love my Blue Chip with my Laplant F style, but it does'nt bring out the best in the Gibson.

    Re: I'm amazed by the Tone Gard
