Hi everyone!
Thursday was my first day picking up a mandolin, which actually belongs to my husband. I'm kind of commendeering it since he hasn't learned to play it in ten years. I was in concert band through Jr high and high school playing the flute and clarinet, so I can read music, though I'm so rusty it's not funny. However I've never played any stringed instrument before. I have a Fender mandolin. Not sure if it's good or not. It's what the dh bought.
First off I'd like to say hi! I'm really grateful to have you all to cry to when my fingers hurt.
Second, does anyone know any mandolin instructors in central California? Not exactly the epicenter of bluegrass, I know, but I'm hopeful.
Finally, Nickel Creek and Chris Thile are who got me interested in playing. That, and I miss playing an instrument. I'd love if someone had the tabs to some of their songs.
