It would be amazing to hear what a varnished Collings or Gilchrist will sound like in 80 years.

Not teardrop but standard guitar pick shape.

He uses the round side of a teardrop shaped tortoise shell.

Thile doesn't use the flat tops. He is using medium elixir nanowebs with a little heavier A and E strings. The A strings are 16 and the E strings are 11.5. He has also gone to a higher action and a...

Yeah, they were built by Keith Murchison. I think he only built 5 or 6.

Tony dominated Lonesome Reuben and Faded Love

Tony also played bass on one or two tunes if memory serves me correctly.

Woohoo! Ordered!

Very very cool!

Is the opry Mills store even owned by Gibson? I thought I read it was owned by someone else.

Ellis mandolins are incredible in every way.

I use the tapastring jack with a K&K mando twin pickup. I think it is incredible!

Huh? :confused:

Chris plays with a Wegen TF 140. IT was posted on the cafe that he was using a blue chip pick but I dont know for sure. When I saw him in March he was using the Wegen.

Better yet is to learn by ear. You can hear everything. All music is available in an audio format to your liking. :grin:

Ummm lets try the spelling for most again. It is most, not msot.

"Don't real TS cost more? If BC is cheaper why the fuss"

I have never paid as much for shell as what a bluechip costs. The msot I have paid for shell is 25.00 and it has been a while since I paid...

I wish someone could post some good photos of Dude #5. I think that would be cool. I was always kinda curious what the back of it looked like.

I have read the previous posts about the blue chip picks in the 400 or so threads that have popped up (obvious exaggeration). My issue was not so much the pick cost of 35.00 but the fact that Tn is...

I know enough about business to know that if you have an $80k machine and a $55k machine to cut picks, then you must be selling enough to justify having that machine. There is no way I would buy that...

I was going to order a TAD 60 but then I noticed the total. There was another charge of 3.00 shipping and sales tax that was 3.41. The total came to $41.41. I personally think that if youre charging...

The problem with the fleshy part of your hand hitting the e string sounds like you are gripping the neck like a bat instead of the thumb resting on the back of the neck. Bill monroe had big hands,...

On thing that is important about Thile using one is the fact that the guy is the equivalent of a mandolin rock star and arguably one of the greatest if not the greatest mandolin player that has lived...

I personally think that if you want to get a bluechip because Chris uses it, then by all means get one. The most important part to all this is the fact that you are happy with what you're playing and...

I use a K&K mandolin twin pickup for chop and then use an Audio technica Pro 37R for solos.
