Old King!

We were at a gig last year and when I opened the case, no BC pick! I was freaking out a little bit, when a buddy spoke some calming words to me, "nobody in the audience is going to give a **** that...
A lot of you will laugh at this but I suffered my first major nick on my Northfield F5S. Stupid me, I was doing a minor repair on the latch of my Travelite, and the dang thing slipped out of my hand...
Last year I was boarding a Southwest flight (with my mandolin) and the pilot was at the end of the jetway providing some entertainment on a short scale Martin and crooning a nice rendition of Sitting...
I didn’t realize that Sam Bush has headlined at Telluride 44 consecutive years! Next year I’ll make it down there. 😉
I recently got an AKG C411 PP and have been really pleased with it. Prior to that, I had been trying to mic my instrument and was constantly battling feedback issues. The C411 seems to be a good...
I've done two rounds of one out one in, but I’m thinking one in none out for my next. Just need a creative excuse for my wife! ;)
Don Julin's book would be good. I also recommend getting these: https://www.elderly.com/mike-marshall-s-mandolin-fundamentals-for-all-players-two-dvd-set.htm
I enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing!
Very nice!
I got introduced to Bill Monroe's music by listening to David Grisman. I have many mandolin heros, but the top dog is Dawg!
I got my F-9 from Dennis quite a few years ago. Super nice guy!
Congratulations on your purchase; it's a beauty!
Southwest makes it a little easier. I would also add that it's good to have some type of case humidifier since it's like desert air during the flight. Oh, and a Travelite case works nicely.
Welcome aboard fast marty! Left hand placement on the neck and right hand picking technique are totally different with mandolin. Be mindful that you don't want to develop any bad technique by...
I wonder how long it takes for Alulu to open up? ;-)
I like the Travelite case and have never had a problem using the overhead compartment. You get some pretty decent protection with the Travelite although I always keep a close eye on anyone trying to...
Mike Marshall's Mandolin Fundamentals Vol. 2 is a really good DVD.
I second Steve Perry. I combined a sight-seeing trip to the Great Smoky Mountains with having Steve work on my Hogan. He did a nice job!
A shot I took at Red Rocks in '78:
I briefly thought about mail ordering, but a stadium concert is more than I care do deal with. I saw the Dead when they played at Red Rocks back 2004 when they toured with Warren Haynes. Those were...
Tone Poets is nice compilation of mandolin/guitar all-stars.
The Kitchen Tapes - Red Allen & Frank Wakefield
anything Jerry Garcia & David Grisman
If you really want a Gibson A-9, then I would get a Gibson A-9. ;-)
Sounds like you need to rest. +1 on what SincereCorgi said and you might want to have your setup checked. You shouldn't have to use a lot of force to play and the pain could be from overexertion.

King David: One of the best 10-string psaltery players ever!
For someone who's on earth, I'll go with Marty Stuart.
