    Re: What's Ricky pickin'?

    It's an earlier Ellis F Style. The inlay style and script changed when Tom Ellis began making mandolins again a few years ago.

    Re: I'm stumped

    Songs like this can be really tricky on the mandolin because they often feel caught between major and minor modes. I made a quick version for you that is in G minor. It mainly uses frets 1, 3, and...

    Actually, no octave tonight as I couldn’t fit it in the car! But the mandolin is a Nugget, so hopefully that gives me some bonus points!!

    I think Mike must use Waverly tuners from time to time as my A style came with them and they are original as far as I can tell. I'd love to know what the serial number is for this Nugget. It was...
