I have a nice Zoom H4N that I am not using and should be. I find the instruction book difficult to navigate and not laid out in a very user friendly manner, or I am just intimidated by it, one or the...

This has been a really interesting thread and one that has pushed me to purchase several sets of SS Med .strings to try on my 2 instruments. both have very different voices and while no accomplished...

Does anyone have one of these and does anyone know where I can get one! Looks like the perfect practice / gig mandolin for me!

I have both Don's books and also use his free Utube lessons, they have been of immense help to me

Are you doing lessons?

Just want to put out there how much I really have enjoyed and benefited from this forum. As Don Julin so aptly put it, Mandolin can heal your soul. I have made great friends including Pasha Aldin,...

Hi Don! Thanks so much for the reply! No worries, I am really getting a lot out of your great U-Tube lessons and have both your books! Following you on FB as well.
I am working on Pig Ankles Rag...

Update,
I have been in contact with Sue Parker and she has been really great. Still not sure what is going on with the Cd but I need to relay that this is a wonderful book and resource, I have...

Does anyone know if Don Julian's online lessons are happening anymore? I have tried the link on his web site and can not seem to get anything?
Thanks!

I must be doing something wrong here, the numbers for the tunes on the CD do not seem to match the list in the back of the book at all to what is actually playing on the CD when I read along with...

OK, Just received the book, really nice! This is it for me. enough to spend a life time on! Spiral bound to boot. Notation only except for 5 songs in the back, but that will just make me a better...

Thanks so much, just ordered the above mentioned book myself!

I am looking for suggestions for a good instruction book to learn some oldtime / ragtime songs Tab or notation is fine, thanks!

Guess I was not concise? I meant if Jazzjune18 was still in town! It's where I bought my Weber

Denver folklore center. if still in town?

Taking this in a slightly different bent, has anyone experienced any ill effects from the slightly lower string tensions of the FW74's over regular round wound strings?

Good point there! OOPS! I put on a set of FW74'S

Wondering what the difference is here? I can find no real information online yet explaining the difference between the FW and EFW 74 D'addario strings. Just put a set on my Weber Gallitin for a try...

I make my own out of a couple pair of nylon bootlaces that I braid , affordable, vegan and comfortable125173

Hi Pasha, thanks for the info. I have just started trying the Gypsy Jazz style, like it a lot so far, This sounds interesting also!

Nice, I own one myself, really like it! A well made and sounding instrument

I have been playing on and off for about a year now and have learned that I like some styles of music to play better than others. I seem to excel at playing melody lines and struggle mightily with...

I second this, for the money they are an outstanding pick. Why do you want a "high value pick" ?

Got my 3 pack of prime tones today ,semi-round with grip 1.3. Got to say, I like them a lot so far. Brighter by just a bit than my other picks I usually use. It is the exact size and shape of my...

Ditto tying under the fret board, that along with a tone Gard. This is the set up I use on both my Mando's and the balance is spot on.
