Indeed. I just want to point out that the OP isn't helping much with the evolution of this discussion with his posts, which are replete with authoritarian pronouncements, dismissive assertions, and...

Oh, yay! Something I know something about and can help. OK, it's pretty easy, but even a small victory is a victory, and I'll take it. ;)

All the way at the top of the page is a row of five...

Perhaps at one time, and for a while, but not originally, nor in these modern times, completely. Makers now produce mandolins with four and five courses, in both double- and single-string...

Aha. Yes, I've noticed instances of this in French. The word for world, "monde," ends with "e," usually an indication of a feminine word, yet it is masculine. Also, the word for egg, "oeuf," is...

Thanks for that. There IS something so feminine about a mandolin.

I can't do that. They're all Gibsons! :)) It's bad enough I have two Mollys. ;) Furthermore,...

This subject has been discussed previously, a lot, with many variations of theory, analysis, and anecdotes, but no definitive conclusion. A search for and perusal of these threads will impart to you...

In my extremely limited experience in this context, I've found that "At Last" is an overwhelming favorite. (That's a more impressive way of saying two out of three times. :grin: ) I assume there was...

The logo's script is wrong for 1921.

The listing has been "corrected" to A, which is still incorrect. More likely A-00, A-40, A-50. I'm not the best with these.

Yes, it "has obvious signs of...

I don't think shipping by bus is an option this time. :whistling:



I've never had a problem with the closet option - indeed, they've offered a couple-few times. The last time I flew, a...

Courier New is the one that works for me

With a bit of trial and error ;)

That was my first thought. :grin:

Also, I take both my beater and my best instrument on board in a soft gig bag with a shoulder strap. It's thin enough to slide under the seat, and otherwise flies...

... or lack thereof. :whistling:

No, but for residents of Staten Island only, there's a Verrazzano option, if yez know what I mean, ;)

My top-of-my-head glib-ish answer is to reiterate what Zal Yanovsky said in the liner notes on The Lovin' Spoonful's first album: He became a convert to Reddy Kilowatt because it's loud, people dance...

You're welcome, any thime. The chord names are the same, and that's most of what matters. There will be bass note indications, which usually can be made to work as a sort of walk-down - which is...

UG is my go-to, although all too often it's a source of much UGH. It has an enormous number of charts, often multiple versions, but they are all too often inaccurate. Some of those multiple versions...

Well, I hope some of y'all tuned in. Turned out Wyatt Ellis is a 12-year-old mandolin prodigy. He and Sierra did a fine duet, with him holding his own, even though Sierra shone like a mandolin sun...

I don't know if anyone's PBS station carries this show - WoodSongs Old-Time Radio Hour - but tonight's episode has this lineup: Corey Harris; Ordinary Elephant; Wyatt Ellis featuring Sierra Hull. The...

Welcome to the Café! :mandosmiley: You must be doing something right if Dawg himself is inspired to chime in on your first thread. :cool:

I'm drawing a blank on anything comparable in my...

Welcome to the Café! :mandosmiley: Home of all things mandolin and a great many very nice folks affected - er, afflicted - er, affectionate about mandolins. ;)

Here's the link to Rob Meldrum's DIY...

The answer to that seems obvious to me - he's a magician as well as a musician. :mandosmiley:

Happy 79th Birthday, Sir! Thank you for, oh, so much magical music. :mandosmiley:

Yes. They mention that in the first video, about 1:50 in.

I just happened across this brief youtube video thanks to their autosuggestion function. It's only a couple of years old and includes some interesting information. For one thing, it mentions plans by...

Just saw this, and it's a bit late for me to unpack Molly and see what's what. But looking at Ultimate Guitar, Versions 3, 4, and 5 look to be pretty close to right. Version 2, with the much greater...

So, a video running 16:30 about this "issue." I don't think I could watch ten seconds of it. OK, I'll admit to accepting some willful ignorance concerning this. And I'm fine with that. ;)
