    Re: John Paul Jones on American tv

    As already mentioned it was a Canadian TV show--(I am Canadian)

    I have watched this a few times.
    He is often underrated by the general public - but most musicians know how talented he is.

    Re: Favourite effects for electrics.

    I typically don't use a lot of effect with my Mandobird, but one of the reasons I like it is that I can use effects
    I do like a bit of distortion at times.
    Chorus can be nice, if it's subtle or...

    Been playing mandolin, bass & guitar--
    I have a couple of riff ideas for bass & mandolin.
    Just need to decide on some song structure--I may need to record some ideas & play along to them.

    But...

    Re: Emando players: What do you want in an amp?

    I use the amps I have for guitar.
    I like a good clean sound and the ability to sculpt a tone as even different guitars will need adjustment of the amp--so a mandolin even moreso.

    As to what it is...

    Re: Does mandolin improve guitar technique

    I've got the same 4--although I rarely play keyboards as I don't have a piano or other keyboard at home, and over the years my focus was guitar.
    As well I play bass (& a bit of guitar) at church and...

    Re: What instrument is the hardest? My experience

    I play guitar, bass & mandolin.

    I'm probably best at guitar, then bass & then mandolin-which is also the order of when I started playing each.
    But difficulty?
    They all have their difficulties.

  22. Re: A likely contentious opinion on electric mandolins

    That's fine-your choice that way.
    As a guitar player--I definitely hear the difference.

    And I like it because I am not playing "Traditional" or "Typical" mandolin styles.

    I just like the sound...

    Re: Abbey Road Medley - Bluegrass Style

    This makes me want to try this with my mandolin.
