Ok, the people I normaly play music with are wanting me to be able to play lead on "you are my Flower". I was hoping if someone could please help me out with being able to play this.

thanks. I sure hope so. lol

They sound all right. they are D'ADDARIO JS74 Stanless steel wound. I bought them with the last little money I had from playing on stage somewhere.

Ya. The strings are coming along well. Last night when I was changeing the E string, every one was laughing at me because I was doing it realy carefully, because I didn't want it to break. It didn't...

Well, we got my strings changed.The guy tookoffone and changed it, then had me take off and change the rest. It was easy but time consuming.Ok, here is the odd thing. When you put new strings on a...

And I will let you all know how the new strings are.

Yes. I play clarenet in normall and my bass in jazz. My teacher is one of the most strikt ones, but she is a very good teacher. It is nice to be in that, and it helped me with knowing about some...

Well, no artist in particular, but my favorite band is Monroe Crossing. Their bass player helped me alot with my bass, and they ar pretty good at what they do.
And yes, music helps alot with getting...

goot Idea, that just might work.:popcorn:~o)

Thanks everyone. And Mick, yes, one of our cats would be like that too if he went near the mando.
I think in the summer will be when I realy start gettin the hang of playing the mandolin because I...

Hello everyone!
