that keeps the humidity in? I have two Northfields, one that has a TKL case and the other has with an Airloom recurve case. It seems the Airloom doesn't keep the humidity in like the TKL. I'm...

I'm so glad you're keeping it, you're going to enjoy it a lot! Great that you were honest too, you won't have to feel guilty when playing it.
I actually have 2 Big Mon's, one with the wide nut and one regular, one is Engleman topped the other is Adirondack topped. I love them both. I really have no problem switching between the two. The...
They just sent me an update on the mandolin with a link to the YouTube video of the prototype, it's not as finished as it will be but you get the idea of the tone. I was also asked to verify my...
Thanks for sharing the pics Ian. I'm really looking forward to my Klos Carbon Fiber mandolin. Just wondering when you'll be sending out emails for the remaining payment for the mandolins?
Artistworks would be a great online class for you. They have 3 mandolin teachers, Sierra Hull, Mike Marshall (very experienced in all types of playing), and his wife Caterina Lichtenberg has her...
I'm waiting for the invoice for the rest of the payment. I thought they were going to have a video, sound sample, and pictures of the mandolin before we paid the rest?
You can sign up for classes with her through artistworks and right now they’re having a 50% off on an annual subscription. You can send video exchanges into her as you go through the course and she...
This was great, thanks Daryl for posting this out here. Lot's of ideas there.
Great interview Matt! I really enjoy all your interviews that you've done and this is a welcome addition.
Yes, string spacing at nut. They give you a gig bag with the mandolin.
I just ordered one, went with the carbon fiber twill front and the wide nut width. I'm hoping there's two strap buttons on it as there was no option for an extra button.
Congrat's on the Big Mon! What kind of top do you have on it, Adirondack or Engleman?
I just received my Eastwood Mandocaster today. It's pretty nice for the price. The one I received has real good intonation. I bought one for late night practicing when I don't want to wake anyone.
Sounds great Ian! I can't wait to see the finished product.
I'm pretty happy with the specs you mentioned Ian. I don't know if there's a way to put a strap button near the back of the neck by the body so you wouldn't have to put a strap from one side of the...
I'm very interested and replied back to their email. I'm hoping it's an F shape or a 2 point at least. But I do want to see a picture, know what kind of tuners, tailpiece, nut width, and hopefully...
Fantastic Matt! I really enjoy your podcasts. I'm looking forward to listening to this one. Thanks for doing these.
I love Artistworks and have taken lessons from a few teachers on there. Some of the response time can be a little slow to your VE's but that is the minority of the teachers. I have to say Bryan...
Yes, Artistworks courses are very good in my opinion. I just re-upped for another year on Bryan Suttons, Sierra Hull's, and Mike Marshall's classes. This is the time of the year to do it with that...
I don't know what your budge is but around the 17th or so of December Artistworks offers 1/2 off of their annual courses. So if you wanted to sign up for Sierra Hull or Mike Marshall it would be...
I've never tried the Artist series or the 4th gen series of Northfield. But I went from an Eastman 615 mandolin to a Northfield NF5sa and that was quite a move up. I got the hankering for checking...
I'm taking her course as well as Mike Marshall's. There's several people that take both courses and they'll send in their VE (video exchanges) to both teachers to get their replies. It's always...
This sounds great! Put me on that virtual waiting list too. I like the looks and the sound.
Thanks for the reply Steve. I'm quite excited about this. I'm very interested in what you end up coming up with and hearing some sound clips when you do.
thanks,
Debbie
