    Re: Arpeggios vs. Pentatonic scale

    I have been attempting to do the same thing as you for quite a while now, and ran into the same problem. When the changes came too fast, or the speed of the tune was too fast, I would dump the arps...

    Re: Mandolin Camp North 2014

    I had an excellent time. The jamming was a blast. I enjoyed meeting Amanda and hearing her clean and creative picking. As always, I was blown away by my mandolin heroes, Alan Bibey and Don...

    I'll be there. My first time at MCN. I'll be playing my Phoenix Ultra and a borrowed Martin D16. Looking forward to it! See you all there.

    Re: Collings MT vs Pava player

    I have played both. I liked the Pava better, but purely as a matter of personal taste. Both were of exceptionally high quality and extremely well made, but the Pava, to my ears, was exquisite. I ...

  11. Re: Rhonda Vincent & The Rage. Her Mandolin setup.

    I saw her recently in Marion, NC. Despite enough rain to dampen anyone's spirits, she put on a very entertaining show with high energy and a tight and talented band, both instrumentally and vocally....

    Re: Free V-Picks - Right Here

    Thanks very much, Vinni and Scott! (As you might expect) I can use some picks. I've bought V-Picks several times, and I really liked 'em. Wish I knew where they were. Clear's not a great choice...

    I agree, but I think the talk should not come after one's been doing a slow burn. For one's own sake, it should come after a long and calming drink of water and privately, if possible. About a year...

    Re: IBMA in North Carolina:

    I'm there. All five days. Would love to see you, Jeff! (I'm Laura who took some very helpful lessons from you a few years ago.) I'll be wearing my Cafe hat, and I would enjoy meeting you folks.
  18. Re: Swannanoa Fiddle, Banjo, & Mandolin Week- going?

    Swannanoa was awesome. What a splendid camp. I like very much the instructional model, having the same instructor on a defined topic for each of the five days. You could take up to four classes,...

    I'm looking forward to seeing you all. I don't have any instrumental excuse to see my favorite luthier, Mr. Dudenbostel, but I hope you won't mind if I drop by anyway. I'm coming ready to JAM with...

    Re: Pull Offs

    The latter. They are pressing down, then plucking and lifting in one smooth motion. Or at least that's they way I've gotten it. A good callus helps a bunch.

    Re: Steffey on an A-model

    Yeah, it's pretty funny. I especially like Jane's dubbed voice. A lot of mandolin in the soundtrack, though.

    Thanks Greg.

    Re: Steffey on an A-model

    So, are you just going to leave me hanging. I'll guess "Greystoke, The Legend of Tarzan" just to give you a reason to tell which movie you referenced.

    And btw, a two-point is a great choice.

    Hey BSG, was that you whose 305 I got to try out in the 2nd floor lounge of Lloyd? It sure was fine sounding.

    Although the acoustics are great and the privacy is a plus, I find this picking seat can produce numbness in certain extremities.
