I think throwing a bunch of unmarked picks in a pick sampler is a brilliant practical joke!

Sorry that you, and we, have lost a friend and comrade.
I've wondered that if (when) I was to die, no-one would inform the forum.
I would just fade away...
Every time I pick it up.
I saw the Punch Brothers live in Paducah, and they tuned for EVERY SONG.
I use the Bose S1-Pro and also an L1-Compact.
One, or the other, and if needed, both.
My tube amps are for the Les Paul and Tele.
A very cool instrument, me thinks.
I swap out 3 identical Blue Chip TD 40's on guitar (my main instrument) because they will wear, and this keeps them all about the same.
My mandolin pick is the Wegen 1.0 mandolin white.
It...
I never thought about black until I just read your reply.
It has an ebony bridge and fretboard.
By golly, I'm gonna do it!
Thanks, everyone. This is still the best forum on the planet.
In the link for "Tuning Machine Maintenance" mine are the ones he says "never work well".
Looks just like them.
I bought it from George Gruhn, who actually owned this mandolin twice. He also had some stories about Scotty Stoneman owning and playing it. I'm going to tear into it and do some cleaning and lubing...
Had a gig the other night, and my stiff d tuner would barely get to pitch. I'm afraid of breaking the plastic.
Man, the Stew Mac sight is a tad confusing. Does anybody know which tuners would drop...
It's a ghostly sympathetic harmonic overtone that sounds groovy, man.
No.
Folky bluesy rootsy Americana.
Thanks for the post. There are many little known writers/musicians who've slipped through the cracks and they all have a story.
Some are just never told.
That's no problem with my acoustic rig...

The Wegen BG100 is great with my old Gibson.
I love a good sea shanty.
Man, I'm getting old. 1984. Nearly 40 years ago I used to send this around, busk with it, and daydream about some Superstar recording it back when a writer could make money off of a "hit single". For...
I truly love those three together...
I love the patina of the worn gold look on my J-45.
I prefer everything to look aged.
It matches me better....
I think my Dad was right.
You get what you pay for.
I agree. I've never gone out of my way to preserve an instrument. I play the heck out of everything I own because it's MINE. It's not about the looks.
There are no rules.
Except in Bluegrass.......
Indeed.
Here's to getting our old World back.
I only saw 1 of those, one time, and recognized Clarence right off the bat. I don't know how the dates line up with the "Live In L.A." album with Scotty Stoneman, but there's not a lot of video...
