I've just listened to Steve's beautiful CD at lunchtime today, and I thought it would be good to watch him play some of this stuff.

Hi there, mandolin lovers. Many moons ago I wrote an ebook on how to set up a mandolin. Mandolins are finicky little beasts and very slight adjustments can make a very big difference. I've been...
Another one gone too early. Sent me back to my favorite video of two of our dearly departed.

See my Post #4 above.
You're precisely right.
A nice recent video about Stefan.

Casual player: yes, change one pair, or single strings, at a time. This minimizes your risk of changing the bridge position or action accidentally.
But let's face it, it's a mandolin. If it's been...
I suspect the original poster mixed up his “ss’s” with his “zz’s”. (Apologies for the inappropriate use of apostrophes.)
This is a great and informative video about Gibson mandolins, both pre-Loar and post-Loar.

Jeez, I love...
I believe that Adrian has only completed nineteen mandolins, and I’ve never seen one listed in the classifieds previously.
Last night the CMHF aired their fundraiser that showcased some of the historical instruments they care for. So great to hear them in the hands of some modern day masters. Monroe’s old F5 sounded...

Here is a clear to understand recording. Unlike the fiddle where each part is played twice (AA-BB) the singer is only playing each part once. So the first lyrics are the A part and the second lyrics...
Love this tune too. It’s one that I especially like for practicing tremolo, as well. Thanks for sharing this great rendition. I really enjoyed it.
Hi Guys,

Here's a little backyard picking 'n singing in honor of Mr. Pete Seeger, with my sweet songbird wife and partner Susie Burke. Pretty nice day today up here in ME, and I hope you enjoy the song and...
