Thanks, Tim. I think I'll be up there next weekend and I may get a chance to stop by the store.

Thanks, Tim. I think I'll be up there next weekend and I may get a chance to stop by the store.
Where are the mandolins in the Leesburg store? I looked around a little and didn't see any (I'm usually too bashful to ask, seriously). All I bought was a book by some Niles guy and some picks. They...
Elderly has the Kentucky 150 new for $225 w/free shipping. It's a nice little mandolin but (I hate to say this) I did have to get some setup work done after I received it.
Slacker,
Got a notice from them Saturday, Aug. 4. Said they hoped to be able to ship the case in 30 days.
Slacker,
Have you received your case? I ordered one on 7/13 and it's been on back order.

Chris's OK. Jethro's the best ever. (or maybe Compton)
Thank you.

I just received a new Kentucky mandolin and it appears to have a slightly bowed neck making fingering really difficult with my old, arthritic fingers. It has an adjustable truss rod, but I've never...
The Lawrence Welk Orchestra, because they only play the hits of other big bands. Huh....oh, you said BG bands--not BIG Bands. Well......nevermind. However, I have actually heard Lawrence play some...
Outstanding site! Been listening for a couple hours now. You can just skip on through what you don't want to hear.
I love the Dawg, but I can't think of any reason why his opinion of what music is good or bad should influence me in any way. Musical tastes are totally and irrevocably personal. My personal...

I put black tape on the pegheads, trying to forget what brand they were, but the words Fender and Rover sound mighty familiar.
But it directly from Danny:

Bill Monroe was pretty good, he just couldn't seem to get the hang of that D-U-D-U alternating pick direction business. He had to resort to using a lot of downstrokes. He must have skipped that...
If I'm not mistaken, Ricky Skaggs always hung his capo from that curly thing back when he was with Nickel Creek (before he came back to bluegrass).
SOMEBODY, PLEASE....SHOOT ME NOW!!!
Abram,
Sorry for the delay in replying...been away from the computer.
Not MoTown, I'm down south in the Greenbrier area. He was at a local river festival last June. He's also been here at the...
I've seen Johnny and Robert three times in the last couple of years...last summer at a riverbank amphi-theater in my home town (with the Delivery Boys). Johnny plays a song called "Catch Me if You...

I think you will find supporters of both MKs and Kentuckys on this board. If it were me, I would go for the MK. It is all solid wood, has a scooped fingerboard, better tuners, and IMHO is just cooler...
I have the new CD. If you liked the first one, you'll love this one. All instrumental, great tunes. You can get it here:

His web site lists April 18 as the show date.
Spare Change,
I was on the MK tour. As for shipping, each person just paid shipping(and insurance) to the next person on the list. I think it worked pretty well. I'd like to participate in your...
Good morning all. The picks are enroute to Bellingham, WA, so I'll file this short report.
After much agonizing, gnashing of teeth, and very strict technical analysis (does it sound good and...
