A tad overpriced? Maybe, but it sure is a nice specimen, love the headstock decal.

Very interesting, thanks guys. I bet with an adjustable bridge and setup that Kel Kroydon could be a good little player for someone who wants an oval hole (I already have one or I might jump).

Never heard of this company in relation to Gibson. Looks like a Gibson top, but weird that it's...
Thanks guys, it really is a great album all the way through. I know you will enjoy it.
Hey everyone, now that it's the day after Thanksgiving I'd like to let you know about this great album project.

I could spent all day on Shorpy! Another bowl back here, plus a tastefully hidden banjo in "the Apple store of its day":

Shorpy is an amazing site that publishes high-res copies of historic photos, you should like them on Facebook to get near daily examples of their images. Here is one they posted today of sailors in...
This article sums up the organization's troubles, 5 years in the red, a refusal to embrace newer non-traditional bands, and an outdated organizational model. Raleigh is the death knell.

I didn't watch the award show but I do live in Nashville and went to see some of the free showcases down on Broadway on Tuesday night. The best was seeing the Del McCoury Band at Robert's Western...
I'll stay away from the politics of it. Anyway, I agree with Brunello's assessment, re-reading it I think this agreement deals with both cases.
Stonefingers, I recognize that there are two different cases and this involves the first one, but to me the author's closing statement is true, those things did in fact happen. I ask this with...
Markus, the details of the agreement and nations involved are in the court document pdf attached to the story.
Well well well, news from Nashville this morning.

I like the tear drop shape, fretboard inlay, and what look like bound f-holes.

I love this album too. The only thing I find odd is that there is not even one instrumental on it (beyond the intro). I understand it's called the "Songs of Bill Monroe" and not "Songs and Tunes of...
Max, I've seen a couple of your Garcia models before and I just have to say, as a big-time Deadhead and a mandolin player, I LOVE this design! Wish I had room for one at my house. It would be super...
Chris Henry is doing great things for traditional bluegrass mandolin playing, while still giving it the wild-eyed freshness that it should have. Music starts in the first clip about a minute into...
Here are a few more shots of it. One thing I always pay attention to is the quality of the binding work, esp. around the scroll. I've seen a lot of less-than-perfect work on a lot of high-end...
Kevin, if you're asking about my mandolin then no, I don't know the specific variety. I asked Paul in an email and if I remember right all he could say was it's "probably Englemann."
It's a good mandolin, I played one for 10 years before getting an F style. Sold mine for 1K so you got it for a good price.
Congrats! This is my 2011 Summit Artist that I bought a few months ago, upgraded from my Summit F100 that I played for three years. It has a vintage brown color and satin finish that is unusual for...
Awesome! I have a '22 A2 that is very similar except with the paddle head.
Love Paul's singing and mandolin playing on all those old Jimmy Martin records. Not sure if it's on that compilation but check out the songs "What Was I Supposed To Do" and "Deep River," they...
I would really like to do this, and I am not a cruise person, never been on one. BUT, those prices are HIGH. A cruise-experienced friend of mine said an average cruise costs about $100 a day, this...
