Was he one of the "Greenbrier Boys" at some point?
i plead "sorta guilty".
Caleb Klauder has the machinegunniest tremolo. Percussive. Loud. In your face. Some might call it mandolin abuse. I like it but it ain't sweet or smooth. And Caleb uses it well.
"double time" vs "half time"
In formal metrical analysis, each of these terms is an example of what is called a "dok". If they are indeed equal, they are known as "paradoks".
Hope this helps!
Well now, THAT clears up something that has bugged me off and on. Like when I see a video and say "Now wait a minute, that doesn't look like Dave HansXn." Or, "Hang on, what is he doing here in the...
At first I was taken aback by the "New Scent" being "Unscented". But I did read something recently that scientists have shown that "silence" is actually a sound. So I guess unscented might actually...
I somehow missed this thread on its original posting. Thanks for the update and all the best to you, son, and wife!
When I was new to the mandolin, I looked a lot. Gradually, my fingers "learned" where they needed to go for clean fretting at the correct fret. By then it had become a mild habit and it took some...
You and son are in good company, Mark. Even Pavarotti was (allegedly) singing a step or two down late in his career. I have to say "allegedly" because I don't want to get sued....
Was it a bowlback? Sure looks like a bowlback case. But the body looks like a flattop mandolin to me. Kinda scrunched in to the case. It sorta fits, I guess.
Thanks, Mike. I now have a new envy - of those who are good audiators.
It is an interesting read, verbalizing some of the reasons I avoid calling myself a musician.
How 'bout this "Gibson"? It does include some Gibson strings.

You'll probably get dinged for language, but the thoughts you convey are valid.
I think today's mandolins do look pretty with all those sunbursts and stain but I really like the look of natural wood. I trust that bluewood binding was sustainably grown and harvested and no...
rob's address is below. I, too, highly recommend reading the book and then practicing on a junker before starting work on your Gilchrist or Monteleone.
This thread - https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/group.php?discussionid=6977&do=discuss - has a bit of history for the tune including "waxies dargle"; see the first few posts.
All the best for a smooth surgery and a quick rehab.
Patti, you are an inspiration to many of us, even those of us without fiddles. Keep up the battle!
Well I did a Google search for
That gave a bunch of hits but it's not a real neat solution.
I think this has been discussed before and basically the answer has been that the software for the...
This is true if you overfeed your cat. Cut back the rations to the vet-recommended diet and it'll give you all kinds of attention ... starting about an hour before dinnertime.
I think the 5 may...
Not sure if it is still on the market, but the apartment house where Woody lived while here in Portland (Oregon) was up for sale a couple weeks ago. This according to the Oregonian. Apparently he was...

Wow. How do I get on the waiting list for the album? The video is wonderful.
Also for the record: I have bought and sold mandolins through the cafe's classifieds for several years and have had good communications in each case.
Scott runs a smooth operation here.
I don't know if it is just me and my somewhat suspect brain, but I have a lot of difficulty using a metronome app that uses both an audible click and a visual light blink. I never can feel like the...
