  5. Re: do you own/have experience with a Martin Style 5 Terz?

  6. Re: do you own/have experience with a Martin Style 5 Terz?

    Guy I know drives from Colorado across Utah and Nevada to Tahoe for an annual vacation. He bought a used Yeti cooler to hold two of his fiddles. It’s pretty large. Before he starts, he puts the Yeti...
  8. Re: What price level and up gets you a "lifelong keeper" mandolin

    I don’t think a price-range can be assigned to a “lifelong keeper,” regardless of “tier.”
