I care because my hand rubs up against the screw and is annoying.

Thanks for the responses though. I wasn't sure if the screw was supposed to be like that or not.

I think you guys understand what the issue is, but just for the sake of learning how to get a photo up, here it is. Sorry for the picture quality...that was taken with my phone, but you can see the...

I lowered the action on my cheap used Fender, and I don't like that screw sticking up from the bridge. I put a tiny piece of duct tape over it and it is fine for now, but does anyone have a...

I am a long time guitar player and a new mandolin player as well. For the first week or so the top knuckle on my index finger really hurt from that "scrunched" feeling caused by the small neck. I...

I just like Grier's style more.

I would never argue against Tony Rice and his place in music history.

I wish the clip didn't cut out at the end. These guys did it right that night.

Damn, that was awesome.

Beautiful instrument.

He's pretty, pretty, pretty good.

I like that instrument. Worked well with Marshall and makes for a nice jazzy instrument as well.

Thank you sir.

Is that a mandolin or something else?

Nice video. I want one of his mandolins. :grin:

David Grier. Better than Tony Rice.

Yeah, I said it. :grin:

The two Bela Fleck albums: Bluegrass Sessions and Drive. Those are the two discs that made me want to play bluegrass music.

Norman Blake - Back Home in Sulpher Springs
Norman Blake - Natasha's Waltz
Faces - Ooh La La
Punch Brothers - Punch
Ricky Skaggs - Instrumentals

Agreed. In the grand scheme of things, it's not THAT hard to come up with an extra $25 grand for whatever it is you want. Most people put the money on their kids' future. Some buy mandolins.

Nice little jam.

Markelberry, I've had a VERY similar issue, though not in a formal setting. If you are not all THAT much better than your friend, I would advise you to just deal with it. Don't let your ego go out of...

Thanks to all who responded.

Pretty funny that he claims he has a "sissy boy" setup. I was *this* close to writing that he plays like a girl in my original post, but I figured I would cause too...

I've been listening to How to Grow a Woman lately but haven't heard much else from the Boy Wonder as I am relatively new to bluegrass/acoustic music.

He's got a soft, quiet tone to his mando...

Sweet Jesus, ain't that the truth.

Pretty sweet how they are broadcasting the festival live.

Not exactly what I was looking for, but a pleasant surprise.

Thanks.

Hi all. I am looking for a recommendation for a good internet radio station that features newgrass type music. Preferably free.

Thanks.
