Any idea how to attach straps to a hard mandolin case ? I have a F-5 lefty and lefty hard case. I travel quite often and find a really need a strap so I can carry over shoulder.

I really appreciate the Pete Martin tip. Thank you !

My biggest problem is picking, then going into a tremolo, then back to picking, then back to tremolo, etc. I quickly loose my rhythm. Ending...

Does anyone know what might be the oldest lefty F-5 on the planet ? I do not believe there were any made until maybe the 80's ? I am guessing most lefty players changed over to right handed until...
