Congrats on your new Waterloo~. Can you please describe the sonic differences between the Waterloo and the Calhoun? Thank you!
I know Bill is sick about this. So sorry. I've had 4 instruments stolen in my lifetime and it's an empty feeling for sure.
Good luck with the recovery.
Congrats on one year!
I'm coming up on mine in a few months.
Have fun!
Thanks for the comments and photos Scott.
Been wanting and waiting for one of these for a while! I'll be getting one for my MF and one for my D2HA as well.
Another happy Heritage insured here. I went through this about a year ago a decided on them.
It's nice to talk to someone who actually knows what you're talking about when you talk musical...
Love mine! Thanks for the recommendation in another thread almeria. :)
Thank you and other's high remarks for this tuner.
I ordered one after reading this as my black Snark does fine with guitar, it is not quite as fine tunable with these unison string courses on...
Me too!
I have 3 of the black Snarks and they work fine for guitar, but I've noticed the same as the OP on tuning my unison stringed mandolin...
Crazy me bought my first mandolin, a $4500 Collings, three months ago. I love mine more everyday, but knew from the beginning I should have gotten a cheaper instrument to learn on.
I got together...
I had the K & K installed in my mandolin before I even brought it home.....just in case. ;)
I love the way it sounds and gets plenty loud enough through my AER acoustic amp with no preamp.
I do...
I'm a life long guitarist & bassist that just started learning mandolin a couple of months ago. I have really enjoyed the challenge of a new instrument.
I find it rather easy to switch back and...
We did it!!! It was a blast. Sounded much better than I would have thought.
Thanks again Tara.

It was on Tuesday because the mandolin competition was that night. I was lucky enough to get off work that day and make the 3 hour drive up to b part of the unofficial New World Record!!
Met...
Most of the ones in the classifieds are new, from Collings dealers.
And contrary to what the one guy said in that other thread, Collings do not produce large quantities of mandolins.
Certainly...
Unofficial results are.......WE DID IT!!! 490 something players! Sounded much better than I would have thought too!
I only have one and it's a MF.
Love mine. Plays great, sounds great & looks great. Can't go wrong with a Collings~
Just thought I'd update to say how much I am enjoying these two upgrades to my MF.
The Waverlys were first and they are a big improvement.
The James was a few weeks later and although I knew it...
Very nice Matt!
Thanks for sharing.. I'm about to play mandolin the first time in public tomorrow.
Tara, I sure hope there is a lot more intrest for this attempt locally. Not generating much excitement here, collings forum or DrZ forum.
Headed up tonight myself! :mandosmiley:
I really like my K & K I had installed in mine from the beginning...
2 threads now.....and I'll be there to contribute to he awful sounding record attempt! :grin:
I got the day off....I'll be there..
I'm a beginner mando player, but I've learned the tunes and I'm ready!!
What I can figure out is why the Swannanoa mandolin camp is this same week....

Yes, DWP, that is the stuff.
Thanks Dale.
You would be surprised how much smoother the bridge and nut slots can get.....and how much it helps tuning stability..
