Not to be confused with "Goodbye Mitchell Jayne".

Well, someone had to post it:

Thanks for the report, pump. That back on yours positively glows.

Here are some pictures of #36, which is coming in a few days.

Steve,
I recall Gianna's bad accident a few years ago. I add my hopes here that her recovery this time goes smoothly, well, and as quickly as possible. Aside from the superb work that you've done...

I have one of these. It's a TKL case. Same color, same brown plush, same solid plastic handle (the dead giveaway). I ordered it from Janet Davis Music in 2008 for $127.50. Mine is very nice,...

Dyfn,
What gauges do you use on your acoustic for that? That's worth trying out.

Sweet. What strings--what gauges--will you use? Ball-end electrics?

What Dr. Lyman said. Only Arthel Watson gets to call himself "Doctor" around here.

Jim, that is really gorgeous. Love the side AND front (5-ply?) binding.

3 more shots. Compared to the back, the grain on the front is downright sober. But check the figure in the neck.822068220782208

Two photos of Wiens #36, which Jamie recently sent to me before he started staining.

Rutabaga Boogie!

One day late, but Happy Birthday, Dan. You should've had Jamie do a chicken on that headstock.

"Walls of Time" is on her "Live at the Ryman" album, not "Roses in the Snow" But I agree with your comment about Sam Bush's intro.

Alan,
"How High the Moon" is on her "Evangeline" album. And I agree: he don't.

Rob,
I know about Tasty Licks (Rounder), Tasty Licks' Anchored to the Shore (Rounder), Don Stover's Don Stover & the White Oak Mtn. Boys (Rounder), Tottle's Back Road Mandolin (Rounder), and his...

Dan,
Scroll partway down the Friends of Old Time Music site, and next to the Kentucky Ramblers' album you'll see "My Blog List". A terrific one there is "Bill's Blog"...

I finally tracked down the first Tasty Licks album right here: http://airplaydirect.com/music/TastyLicks/

Jack Tottle, lead vocals, on Tasty Licks' Anchored to the Shore.

Very gratifying to see all the praise for Jack Tottle. Barney's "oasis in the desert" is an understatement. That's exactly what that book was like for some of us old persons way back then.

I did...

I have not dealt with Stephen Perry and Gianna on violins (although I will eventually--when I take the plunge), but he has set up mandolins for me, and I would take his advice on these things. He is...

A thread that I now can't find, on the UMGF forum, made a link to the Friends of Old Time Music site (http://maskedcucumber.blogspot.com/) which was completely new to me. Many of you may know this,...

Hi Mike,
Do you have any pictures? Was the neck joined to the body the same way as the A50? Fretboard lengthened? And it kept the same scale so that the bridge was shifted north, as John Hamlett...
