Where can the thread be located?
...by buying more mandolins? ;)
From context I’m guessing it means Mandolin Acquisition Syndrome. If so, I am definitely suffering from it! Been playing for hardly any time and already want more.
Hi Peter, I love your instruments. The sound is gorgeous and the natural woods are lovely. I am curious about your pancake mandolins - they seem far underpriced! I don't know much about making...
Just wanted to chime in and thank everyone for keeping it civil and respectful! I know discussions of diversity can sometimes push some buttons.
That makes sense. I have the G-110 which is made to look like a mini electric guitar. It's adorable and to my untrained ear sounds great. But then again, I'm the type to like a break from tradition...
I just inherited a Rigel. What warrants the stink eye?
I'm new here, and was just browsing the classifieds, and found this. Is this really worth $70k? That seems...insane, even for a collector. Who would dare play such a valuable instrument? Just curious.
Well, I would assume he would know about good mandolin posture, which is what I was referring to. I’ll tell my fiancé to break out the massage oil :)
Hi again, sorry for posting so much. I’ve been playing for nine days and I’m starting to get a tightness in my left shoulder, my fretting arm, probably from having my arm bunched up while playing. I...
How frequently do you practice/play, and how long have you been playing?
I‘ve been playing a week, and at first it was really painful and I couldn’t play more than 3 10 minute increments per day....
Yes, and I love them. I’m not saying they aren’t out there. I’m just wondering why they seem to be the minority.
I’m interested in learning the tenor guitar alongside learning mando. How feasible is this? I’ve heard it’s more doable since they’re both tuned in fifths - can anyone speak to this? I’m pretty new...
I’ve noticed from my short time around the cafe and a few Facebook groups that the majority of players seems to be male. The author of the mandolin guide frequently requested here says that 95% of...
Learning simultaneously, not playing simultaneously!
I want to record little videos of my playing to post and track my progress as I learn, and yes, to show off a little ;) Anyone have a suggestion of a modest microphone I could use for recording?...
Don’t mean to hijack the thread, but I just started playing a week ago and I’m already experiencing left wrist pain. Is this normal for just starting out or am I possibly using improper technique?...
I have been playing mando for five days and I’m already itching to learn other instruments. Would it be too difficult to learn guitar and/or ukelele at the same time as learning mandolin? Too...
I have a ‘96 Rigel inherited by my fiancé and I’m looking to get it serviced - bridge realigned, string action lowered, and anything else it might need. Anyone know of a good luthier in Cleveland,...
Ha! Nice try :)
Do you know if this is an expensive modification, generally speaking?
Hi, all. I have a 1996 Rigel my fiance inherited from his great-uncle. It's a wonderful instrument, sounds beautiful, but the neck was customized to be a bit thicker than a normal mandolin. I have...
