    Re: My new Gibson fern

    I know for a fact that this mando sounds as good as it looks. Rex, for some stupid reason, I didn't play it last time we picked but it sure cut the mix. If you want, we can bring my mando for you...

    Re: Holoubek Mandolins

    No 131/42 now lives in the Missouri Ozarks, and I suspect it probably will for quite some time. I suspect the mandolin that Cary listed is probably 130/141 as Ondrej's ones look like sevens.

    Re: Holoubek 131/42

    Ray, I was actually curious about your impressions of my mandolin (#131/42) when you played it and possibly who owned it at that time.

    Re: Holoubek 131/42

    Ray, how long has it been since you played this mandolin and what was your impressions of it then? It doesn't have a huge bottom end like some of the mandolins I have owned but it cuts a jam better...
