Yeah, I've been dealing with arthritis in both my hands for the past couple of years. One of the things I've done to help cut down on inflamation is to eliminate sugar from my diet (added benefit of...
My name is misspelled on the owners list as well, I think that Don has someone else handle his website for him and I'm guessing things sometimes get lost in translation. You can contact Don directly...

Where can I order one of those? Is there one available where I can get my Gilchrist to sound like a Heiden?
Jim, I remember asking Phil about the nut and don't remember if it's ebony or the Delrin material that Mike Kemnitzer sometimes uses. There were probably at least a couple of previous owners so it's...
Yeah, the Heiden two point was Phil’s mandolin. I think that Phil would be pleased to know that someone from the Cafe community had it and was going to continue to find more tunes in it. Phil had a...
I played the two point that’s at Mandomutt when I was at the Swannanoa Gathering a few years ago, it belonged to a friend of mine, it’s an exceptional sounding mandolin.
Yes it's mine, I had been looking for the 'right' oval hole mandolin for awhile and this one showed up used on TME's website and I bought it. It's a wonderful combination of vintage oval hole tone...

I met Phil at the Swannanoa Gathering a few years back, I really enjoyed getting to chat and sitting down and picking some tunes with him. A generous man who loved to share his passion for the music...
