Update: They fit just fine. I don't know why I'm so afraid of strings.

Thanks!

Anyone got any good tunes?
Do you have the tabs? I enjoy it! From one budding composer to another, Good Job!
Is Snow Drop Bluegrass?
Okay thanks Kevin!
So how do you come up with riffs or licks?
Damn. I misspelled. My bad. Lol. Yes I do mean role. Not roll.
Hello. I'm new to this forum. I was wondering. What is the mandolin roll in bluegrass?
