I haven't, just seen her on TV, Austin City Limits specifically, and at youtube. I think it was the "White Rabbit" video that got me interested, or kicked my interest up a notch or two. But I've...
I was thinking something similar, but the other way around - that it's a prop, more for looking OK than functioning, per se. Such a short neck, only ten frets, with that decorative join. When you got...
Yes, it does. I was looking at the straight line at the top of the third digit - more like a 5 than an 8.
I like the Ren Faire theory, too. The image of the lutist, the "Santa Cruz" reference ......
This just showed up. Here's a "mandolino" for Mando-lino.
Four strings, not a ukulele.
Looks like 1955 to me.
Holy wow! :disbelief: I am stunned to learn there is precedence for this juxtaposition of words. I was simply reacting to dylandekk's apparent tweaking of the OP by co-opting one of his phrases. But...
Reminds me of the philosophy of sculpture espoused by Michelangelo, and I'm sure many others, my mother included:
“The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my...
I daresay so. First things first, and we'll see about summer in good time.
I'd expect so, too. I've heard she and Ketch are "an item." She's a fine catch, Ketch. :whistling:
Thanks for this. Always good to find something positive after struggling through ... whatever! :whistling:
And kudos to you for your new user title. :)) I doubt I would ever go there, embedding...
I am tremendously psyched to have been notified that Molly Tuttle and Golden Highway are touring and coming fairly close to me. And for free! :disbelief: They will be playing at what is ostensibly an...
What's the other one? And I also wonder, have you put any thought into why you are so dismissive of others' viewpoints right from the get-go, and condescending to boot?
Oh, yes, you are....
It does have this provenance on the back, simply stating "Haring on Mandolin." Looks to be in decent shape. Dunno about quality, though. Instrumental, that is, not ornamental. ;)
Opening bid is...
Just reposting the image for ease in viewing here.

Indeed. I just want to point out that the OP isn't helping much with the evolution of this discussion with his posts, which are replete with authoritarian pronouncements, dismissive assertions, and...
Oh, yay! Something I know something about and can help. OK, it's pretty easy, but even a small victory is a victory, and I'll take it. ;)
All the way at the top of the page is a row of five...
Perhaps at one time, and for a while, but not originally, nor in these modern times, completely. Makers now produce mandolins with four and five courses, in both double- and single-string...
Aha. Yes, I've noticed instances of this in French. The word for world, "monde," ends with "e," usually an indication of a feminine word, yet it is masculine. Also, the word for egg, "oeuf," is...
Thanks for that. There IS something so feminine about a mandolin.

I can't do that. They're all Gibsons! :)) It's bad enough I have two Mollys. ;) Furthermore,...
This subject has been discussed previously, a lot, with many variations of theory, analysis, and anecdotes, but no definitive conclusion. A search for and perusal of these threads will impart to you...
In my extremely limited experience in this context, I've found that "At Last" is an overwhelming favorite. (That's a more impressive way of saying two out of three times. :grin: ) I assume there was...
The logo's script is wrong for 1921.
The listing has been "corrected" to A, which is still incorrect. More likely A-00, A-40, A-50. I'm not the best with these.
Yes, it "has obvious signs of...
I don't think shipping by bus is an option this time. :whistling:
I've never had a problem with the closet option - indeed, they've offered a couple-few times. The last time I flew, a...

Courier New is the one that works for me
With a bit of trial and error ;)
That was my first thought. :grin:
Also, I take both my beater and my best instrument on board in a soft gig bag with a shoulder strap. It's thin enough to slide under the seat, and otherwise flies...
... or lack thereof. :whistling:
