    Re: First Blue Chip

    I have tried different BCs, BC 40, TAD-40, TAD-50, TAD-1R60, but the CT-55 is my absolute favor, which I use on all my mandolins except the Ferrarotti Bowlback.

    Re: Mandolin or Mandola?

    Mandolin or Mandola?

    On the Eastman Homepage their DGM2 and DGM3 are named as mandolins, neck length is the same as with the MD305 (6 15/16) and although the scale length is 15 9/16 with the DGM3 they are all stringed...

    Each of my mandolins has an individual neck shape, from small V to chunky D. After a few minutes playing I donīt have any problem to switch from one to another.

    Re: New strings needed
