I went to a workshop with Reischman (really enjoyed his calm, quiet somewhat wry manner) and he really stresses volume along with tone - make both strings sound, loud and clean.

He's been on my music list since the soundtrack for "Heaven's Gate" - i have the mandolin tabs for "Heaven's Gate Waltz" and wish I had more of the music in tabs.
Listening to this, it sounds like...
Bought on Amazon, listening as I type! Great stuff! "Earl Grey In The Morn" and "Coffee and A Good Book" are my favorites!
Hey, Andy Statman's book, "Bluegrass Masters: Jesse McReynolds Mandolin (Paperback)" is available used on Amazon - for between $126-$351. Gotta love Amazon's competitive pricing bot for used books....
I have heard OF this recording, but the only thing I have ever seen is a mediocre-quality youtube video.
While I love the traditional reds (not so much the traditional yellow tobacco colors), I also love blues.
If I hadn't just bought a "desert dawn" 2005 Weber Yellowstone F oval hole off the...
I'm currently looking at some 12 fret mahogany parlor guitars - in particular a 1937 Martin my luthier has in for repairs....
It also depends on the type of radiant heat - if you are talking about pex buried in concrete or a Warmboard or staple-up floor. If it's concrete, then generally the system has a set point, say 65 or...
Walker Creek also, some great stuff from him.
Was this video shot out in the Alvord? Sure looks like it.
Lol, my PNW breast cancer support group included two men, one who had breast cancer and one who had lost his wife and wanted to give any support he could to women going through the same thing.
...
I also think it has to do with how welcoming a group is or is not to new players. One of the groups here used to have a sort of intro slower jam, with a more limited "set list", prior to the main...
Strike that - the $19,500 is an octave up on their site.
Just picked up a 2005 Weber Yellowstone, f-style oval hole here on the Classifieds and I love it. Needs some minor set up (high action, needs a slight truss rod tweak and the bridge needs to be...
Sometimes - but not always - you can get better prices by going to the website of the selling company (when it isn't sold by Amazon or sold by another company but fulfilled by Amazon). You can also...
Saw Caleb Klauder and Reeb Williams night before last - he has a Sullivan F. Couldn't figure out what it was while he was playing - no builder logo and it's got the Gibson flowerpot on a Gibson-style...
Take a look at the Gator case as well. Pretty similar to a Travelite. I might have to give the Travelite's gray plush interior a slight nod over the Gator's black plush interior, but that is a pretty...
That MUST be a mistake, clearly it should be:
"Wish I had a mandolin string, made of golden twine"
kind of awkward with the syllables, but it can be made to work....
In the early 70s, the spouse bought a late-60s Tele that came in a much older, battered Fender tweed case -the case was probably late 50s, early 60s (Koylon interior). It wasn't in good shape when he...
My local station out of Ashland, OR decided not to air it AT ALL. Had I been home, I'd have caught the live show, but I hate being stuck in one place at one time.
I do like a musical variety show...
Picked this up at camp and it was very fun to watch John Reischman and the other instructors play "Nesser" and then go back to my camp and slowly pick it myself! Look forward to getting some good new...
I went to his (too short, he only had an hour) choro workshop and I thought one of the greatest things was the explanation of how the chord charts are drawn, one "box" per measure. At a glance you...
Now you need a Pava oval to complete the sound samplings ...
there is a Pava oval at Elderly I have my eye on, priced just a tad bit high for me.
Picked up a silver fiberglass Eastman F shaped case (from The Mandolin Store) - my 1928 Gibson F4, my Eastman 604 and my late 70s Washburn 2 point all fit fairly well. The points on the F4 don't fall...
My handy dandy US Bureau of Labor Statistics inflation calculator (which uses CPI, a measure many says underestimates inflation) says that $7,500 in 1995 is $11,750 in 2015, so keep that in mind. And...
Hoping to see it at the Walker Creek music camp that John Reischman will be teaching at Oct 6-9!
