Webers are so nice. They really do have a unique voice that you cant get anywhere else. I miss the yellowstone i had and wont consider my mandolin collection complete until i get another Weber.

These days there are so many mandolins that can compete with the old loars.
Wheras in the past if you wanted that level of craftsmanship it was pretty difficult to get it anywhere else.
Just had alot of fun with this.
Alot of times to practice ill play over an album or a backing track. Im sure others do this too. Try detuning your bottom G and D strings down completely out of...
I really appreciate that you guys are being civil and all.
but in my opinion ukuleles are the devil and need to be rooted out one by one from this earth
I just got my rubners installed on my a9 today. They work very well, a definite upgrade from the schaller/grovers that were on there, though there was nothing wrong with them
My only complaint is...
Yes ive played it, Its been there a pretty long time. Probably just because its a mandola which i imagine is harder to sell. But boy it does sound good
The good thing about the mandolin is that the average person hasnt heard any Chris Thile or Sierra Hull or Avi Avital. For all they know, youre the best in the world
The best cure ive found for MAS is not having any money. Anyone tried that?
Wow the inlay work is really well done, and that top is ridiculous!
Lucky you
I dont think you can determine what strings are best just by the model or brand. Every mandolin is different. They arent cars.Theyre made out of wood. One gibson f5 might be more similar to a...
I really need to spend more time with this.
I cant be sure, because ive never gotten there. But i swear the thing that holds me back the most is fear of messing up. I know what notes to play over...
We are very lucky to live in the same timeline as this virtuoso Chris Farley. Really Post-modern he is
I think i would really appreciate getting The Mandolin: A History book by Graham McDonald
But im kind of a nerd about instruments like alot of us here. Some people just want to play and dont care...
Honestly Sierra is my favorite mandolinist these days. Shes got such a great touch and style and most importantly her music is great. Not just flashy playing in a vacuum
I think shes actually...
Either learn to live with some honest play wear, or use a pickguard.
Theres no need for spot finishing or touchups or any of that. Play wear is beautiful in my opinion anyway. If a mandolin has...
Ive found that they definitely work. Theres not really any debate about that. But sometimes its not a desirable effect. Some mandolins can end up being too bright. That contact between your body and...
very nice playing from both. Probably my all time favorite song
dont worry, i have the same model and make mandolin from almost the same year and i dont sound anything like David
Yeah but he cheated! He usually Removed one fret
A private company may have shareholders as well. Private equity is a thing. Usually private equity firms, or venture capital, but sometimes former employees may also have shares.
All that matters to me is
Do the mandolins still sound good, still high quality? Still a competitive price? For now, the answer to all those questions is yes with the TOH Webers. All the other...
Very nice. I like the original better, maybe the bass player shoulda busted out the bow? Still good!
Either way, I'm pumped!!
I think so. You judge by the quality of the instrument in that case. A lot of the best builders got their start making Gibson replicas. Now days people are more willing to play mandolins with the...
Saw them do this one just a couple of feet away this weekend. This was my favorite song of the set
Absolutely, it's not dissimilar from any other additction. We can call it mas all we want, but in the end, it is an addiction and can get very unhealthy. We can all develop addictions, and we all...
