    Re: V-Picks Giveaway

    I admit I didn't care for them at first, but I really like the V pick now. It's all I use. They grip so well I rarely loose position when I'm playing. Putting things away is another matter. I hate...

    Fishman Triple Play

    I read an article, I think it was written by Ted Eschliman, or was at least on the Jazzmando site on using the Fishman Triple Play midi interface on a mandolin. The idea was too appealing to resist,...

    Re: Jazz effects

    It's amazing the great sounding pedals out these days. That was really smooth and sweet, not what I expected. I love the Analogman line up. I got a chance to talk a bit with Guthrie Govan (The...

    Re: Jazz effects

    I'd caution you to be careful with not adding "too much" effect. As Mr. Wrght aptly said "a tasteful." Also, the particular effect pedal you choose will make a big difference. There's soooo...

    Re: 5 String Mando Chord charts

    I would suggest "The Tenor Mandola Chord Bible," by Tobe A Richards. I've found it very helpful. Although it doesn't account for the E string I've found I can add the appropriate note, or mute...

    I don't get over here as often as I'd like, but always find so much good information when I do. This is a bit off topic for the category, but not that far. I've been playing in a couple of...

    Sorry Ed, I meant to say those were all good choices. I"m most familiar with Jim and Andrew's music, but have heard Don's.
  17. Re: What if there was an electric mandolin camp?

    I wish I had the funds to attend your camp, but I'm still getting used to being retired and on a survivor type income. Just curous who is the makes of the electric mandolin you found?
