Don't know of any reason not to post it here:

As many of you know, there was a post on the cafe recently that Ken Ratcliff was giving away one of his handmade Silverangel mandolins to a young mandolin picker and he asked me to share a clip of my...
I wish the Carters nothing but the best. I've spent time with both of them and they're just wonderful people!
However, I'm not a fan of the direction all of this is going. Venture capital rarely...
Not a bad rabbit hole to go down. Duffey was my first real influence on mandolin. Him and Red Rector.
Well, I'm a bit late to the afterparty, but I wanted to say thanks to Evan for putting this all together! And, Josh, your Monroe style gets better every time I hear you pick!
One of the highlights...
I hope you like it. I'm really happy with this one.

While I have no idea whether or not these issues on a very young mandolin were caused by user abuse/neglect or structural failure associated with the build, it would be enough to make go another...
Thanks for the reply! I'm a little bummed to say that the trade didn't work out, but only a little, because I wound up finding a Morris mandolin for a nice price. Haven't heard back from the LM400...
Sure, sorry about that :) I started building mandos back in 2002.... from 2002 to 2006 I built 32 mandos, mostly F models a few A models and also a couple guitars. I pretty much quit building due to...
A story that could be echoed in many cities and towns. Sorta like the extinction of local bookstores by Borders and Barnes & Noble, followed by their extinction, or at least diminution, by on-line...
You sold 2 and bought 1…..I’d say you’re part of the solution :mandosmiley::))
Agreeing with Lucy. We knew Barry so well and talked to his wife on the phone the day he passed. Tragically he passed from a heart attack and we are devastated! The details don't matter all that...

I guess a "Chinese mandolin supply shortage" would qualify as a First World problem...(along with running out of my favorite deodorant....:grin:)
Like Allen says, plenty of used ones out...

I copied that this morning. They pulled the ad after I contacted them concerning pricing and availability.
I’m on my third decade of buying, selling instruments. I have to say, very little...

So after 3 anxious months #59 showed up at Greg Boyd's Saturday before last. He shipped it Tuesday and it arrived yesterday. Got in a few hours ago from Charleston and just now put it down. Matt...
What's wrong with people expressing their opinions? Even those you disagree with. You most certainly have; plenty. If it's good for you, why not others?
Hey guys....I’ve been running fevers for about 10 days and the Drs are trying to figure it out. It’s not Covid....they tested that twice now which probably makes like 12 of those I’ve had in the...
Firstly, Mandolin Cafe, thanks for being patient with a nerd like me who is probably overly excited about his first build and my most humble apologies for "over sharing" my progress as I've gone...
Just got confirmation recently that yes, its on this year! Hard Times Bluegrass Festival near Hamilton, Montana.
I've never been before, but all other festivals in the NW have been cancelled into...
I recently acquired a morris a5, and I have to say I am shocked by the quality of this mandolin. My A5 has a redwood top and curly maple back. She's loud as all heck and has such sustain that even my...
