While bumming around the 'net today I ran across this little ditty on Marty Stuart's website. #Looks like a nice stocking stuffer for some poor fool with scroll envy!

Jeez, Mandopete, wish I could just bum around on the web all day . . . oh wait, that's what I'm doing now!

What the heck is a mandolin blinkey supposed to do?

Only one F hole? And the frets look too evenly spaced; I bet the intonation is way off...

I loved the 'Marty Stuart in Space' comic book - what's the audience for that?

Yea, what does it do? Blink? That's it? Ok, whatever... http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

Yes like the name implies, it just blinks (lights up). #You will see people wearing these things at concerts and they are really distracting. #I went to see Allison Kraus this summer at an outdoor venue and they were handing out some sort of blue-colored blinky. #Dan Tyminski commented from the stage that looking out across the sea of blinking blue lights looked like a police raid!
