Okay last post on this thread I promise. I just wanted to say that I stand corrected. I retract any previous statement and am now actively looking for a Northfield to try out. I thought they were the...

Strange . . . I haven’t seen Zach searching up threads about The Loars to voice his dissent.
I am a fan. My Flatiron 1N to my ears was the best sounding of the flattops I sampled when starting...

Is it a STELLLLLLAAAAA ???
Found some pics of Eric with a mandolin. I'm guessing the one he's got there backstage at Symphony Hall, Boston, with Jim Rooney, is Geoff Muldaur's. I think Eric just had a beater. The performance...

Thanks! Actually, funny you should mention it ... not a one. :confused: I think she spent her life in a different part of the country, where they play different kinds of music, or something....
Here are my arrangements of 10 Finnish folksongs, with a style of playing two voices on one mandolin

Hi all, I'm writing to share my recently rediscovered Macrostie instrument, pre-Red Diamond, Rosewood back and side, European spruce top A from 1978. I just got off a lovely call with him after...
