Can’t comment on the origin, but that bridge has to be hard on the wrist.

The D’Add XS (white pack) have lasted me 6-8 mos with daily play. By far, my favorite set but goodness they charge $$$ for them. I, like you, find changing strings as appealing as going to the...
I believe it’s Daley’s Reel. Many recordings of it around and a popular jam tune.
I contacted Bruce Weber a few months ago and he agreed to make this pair of “nutwheels" to install on a Cumberland bridge on my Tyler White A5. I believe these are essentially installed upside down...
FWIW, might want to check the centering of your bridge. Looks a little to the treble side, altho photos can be misleading.
Might want to check with Tyler White over in Bloomington IN. Can’t say enough good things about him and his work. http://www.whitemandolins.com
Guitars have been located - hopefully the individual(s) responsible will be caught and face trial for theft. I have removed the original "Stolen notice" posted on 3/3.
I've had great experience as well with the XS on guitar and mando. I've got about 8 mos. (your 21 months is insane!) on my mandolin strings and play the tar out of it most evenings. I think...
Oh wow, do I win a trip to Hooterville? :cool:
Aged Tupperware, circa 1963.
Velcro to belly. ;) Actually, I've found a Tone-Gard helps. As others have mentioned, a strap can also reduce slippage.
Young man is Wyatt Ellis. An up and coming mando player and talented young man. A number of seasoned stars have noticed his skills and dedication and taken an interest in mentoring him.
I was chatting with Tyler today and he sent me a few videos of a fine player testing out some of his latest mandolins. I'm not familiar with him - Caleb Christopher Edwards, but I think he knows...
Russ - Went yesterday for a short while. Some nice instruments for sure but it seems the markups are higher than ever, no doubt a sign of these times. I did have a very nice visit with the Altman...

A Tyler White amongst the Gils. (Note: The 3 Gils belong to a friend in SC).:disbelief:
Almost there. I'm anxiously awaiting a new mandola build from Tyler White in Indiana. I have his #11 mandolin and my new mandola, #18 is his second. Going to be a curvy, curly blonde.
I know that has to be extremely upsetting. I will share that after my first quick glance, it looked as though it was screaming, "Feed me"!
For those who are fans of Tyler White's mandolins (like me), I found a new test drive on Youtube. It's number 14 which I think he was planning to keep around the shop as a demo but later decided to...
I agree about using something easy and familiar like your phone. If you want to also get better quality audio and/or video, you may want to check into some of the higher quality small mics that are...
As the lucky recipient of the new #11 White Mandolin, I wanted to show off Tyler's latest work with the mandolin community. I've been quite taken with a ‘29 Gibson Fern that The Music Emporium has...
