It depends on what you consider F-style.

John D'Angelico built at least one (very ugly) F-style mandolin in the 1940's. There was also the Epiphone Windsor model.

That thing looks sketchy as hell. I definitely wouldn't buy it without playing it first.

You have a BRW and an Altman. Why are you even looking at that thing? It's like you're Hugh Grant cruising...

This happened to jazz decades ago. It's basically inevitable.

NFI, but there's an unbelievably sexy Monteleone Radio Flyer A-Style for sale on Reverb.

Who needs a scroll when a mandolin looks like that.

It might actually sell. This is how you launder money.

I personally want to see a video of Chris Thile playing a well-setup $50 Rogue.

If the piece was original written for violin I would say lose the capo on principle.

But it's a keyboard piece. Capo away without guilt.

I actually own and play a 1923 Snakehead A with a replacement neck that has a radiused fingerboard and EVO gold frets. It is an absolute monster and it sounds and plays like a million bucks.

I can't imagine I'd be able to resist the urge to play the Godfather theme on that thing.

I can't believe those things are still on the market. I had a Larrivee guitar that was ruined by those humidipaks a number of years ago. D'Addario made good on it (and paid for me to replace the...

Lewis Black has a brilliant routine about the time he had to follow-up a Vince Gill performance:

I paid $200 per ticket to see him do an all-bluegrass show at the Birchmere a few years ago.

My wife and I had to leave the concert early after he had been playing for FOUR AND A HALF HOURS to get...

He plays quite well actually.

Wow. Nobody is going to accuse that eBay seller of "price GOUGING."

See what I did there? :grin:

Yuck. I can't imagine cleaning my hand-grime out of all those little holes.

He was basically the Nudie Cohn of luthiery.

I saw this listing on Craigslist and I figured it was too cool not to share.

I have no financial interest.

Usually those Style A models tend to go for around $4k.

That being said, yours is the cleanest one I've ever seen. I have no idea what somebody might be willing to pay for it.

You're in Nottingham and you say you have an Arrow?

Your name wouldn't be Robin by any chance?

Step 1: Decent professional set-up.
Step 2: Tone-Gard.
Step 3. Experiment with string gauges and picks.

These things are going to make FAR more of a difference than changing the bridge.

Maybe $3250.

The second video shows a full demo of the capabilities, but in short, it does the following:

1. Has individualized feeds/streams for each lesson or ensemble. These are somewhat similar to...

Today I launched a Kickstarter campaign for a music education and collaboration website</a> I've been thinking about building for the better part of the last decade. I figured it might be of interest...

A fight between members of a band playing Irish music at a bar two days before St. Patrick's Day.

I wonder if alcohol could have been involved?!?
