I can't see the video in the original post but if this is the one (https://instagram.com/p/BVJDYPpFGeD/) I quite like it. It's got a good groove. She has a great tone there IMHO.

You have a good point. Thanks for your reply.
I can trust sound samples only to the extent that they were well recorded in a good flat room using quality microphone>interface, uploaded without...
Hello John. Looks great!
I looked for sound samples on emando.com but didn't find any. Do you have a link? Thank you.
Does the Bartlett work well on an oval hole mandolin?
Thank you, Kalasinar.
Noob question:
McClung vs. CA armrests. Pros and cons? Or which has advantage and why? Thank you.
Aaron Weinstein is not only a great jazz violinist, he also plays jazz mandolin.
On a gig, I bring a Hercules GS432B tri-stand. Stable, sturdy, protects well, compact when all closed down ready to pack. Fits guitar, bass, mando, ukulele, and similar instruments.

Different materials:
Delrin or Tortex = polyacetal (acetal homopolymer)
Clayton Acetal = acetal copolymer
Ultem = polyetherimide

Thank you, Rob for the videos and the ebook. Great resource!
I have set up many flat top and archtop guitars over the years so I am familiar with the basics addressed in this book, but I really...
Thanks for the replies. I find them very informative. I appreciate that some answers and comments seem to contradict others because they all offer different points of view and perspectives to learn...
Thank you all.
I will identify the mandolins tomorrow. ;)
You really are. :)
Now this being said, I know better than interfering between a couple. :whistling:
Al, thank you. This is exactly the type of comment I am looking for.
Since my first thread to which you also graciously contributed, I've had up to 8 mandolins at home for an extended sleep over....
Hello,
I am new to mandolin. I've been a guitar player for many years and after two unsuccessful stints hoping to learn tenor guitar (I find the fifths tuning too hard on a 23" scale), I decided...
Not to hijack the thread, but has anybody tried Cumberland's ebony archtop guitar bridges? As recommended as the mandolin bridges? Thanks!
Thanks, Larry. :)
We have a place here in Calgary called The Acoustic Guitar that's by appointment. Great place to get lost in. :) They have a fantastic selection of guitars, mandolins, ukuleles, and accessories.

UPDATE: I have chosen the MD805/v. The MD404 I had my hands on is a very nice mandolin too, but I am determined to have only one so the 805 won. Thanks to all for your help, thoughts and comments.

Congrats on a beautiful mandolin! Great story too. Being sold and becoming available again at the right moment, this mando was meant for you. :)
I can't remember if there was another x04. Many mandolins went back and forth in my hand over the course of 90 to 120 minutes. I didn't pay attention to model designation until I was down to two...
The blacktop Gilchrist A would be my favourite even without the provenance, but that makes it even cooler. :)

I knew that I could not afford Heidens, Webers and a couple others. It did not prevent me from trying most of them though. ;) One Heiden, I would definitely have let follow me home but it has many...
They had a good selection of Eastman mandolins as well as a few Weber, plus a couple Heiden, but these are out of my price range! I am not sure if I played a 505. I know that there was a DGM1 and a...
