A little Bluegrass but I am not into trying to be Mr.Monroe there was one and only one. It makes me rather crazy to hear so many mando players trying to play as fast and as close to Mr. Monroe's...
I won't use anything but a Wegen I tried so many over the years and never felt like any pick was right until about a year or so ago when I got a couple Wegen picks. Now I won't play any of my 5...
