This weekend I had the opportunity to get together with a bunch of fellow Hinde owners. It was so fun to meet others and see the different mandolins that Steve Hinde has made. Steve was even kind...
I just got my hands on the new solo album that Nick Dumas just released and it is definitely worth checking out. It is full of great tunes and also has top notch musicians on it as well. I love the...
Thanks that makes sense. I didn’t know if it was a Kay or not but now I do find others by putting in Kay. Thanks!
Hi,
Someone I know is selling this mandolin. I can’t seem to find anything when I try and search for “K Mandolin”. Any information would be appreciated!180326180327180328
Thank you! I didn’t realize there was a forum (I just subscribed a few weeks ago). I posted it there now too.
Thank you!! Here’s a song I’ve been working on... hopefully it will give you a good idea of the sound. It’s just recorded with an iPhone.https://youtu.be/YMJW170mQko
Thank you!! Nick did a mandolin workshop at a festival a few years ago and that’s where I first met him and learned about his Hinde. After that I decided I wanted one. I now also take lessons from...
Ccravens-Thank you! And it does! My truck is that color too... I might like that color too much lol!
Hi!
I wanted to take the chance to show off my new mandolin since I’m pretty excited about it:grin:. If anyone is considering ordering a mandolin from Steve at Hinde Custom Instruments, I highly...
Hi,
This is probably a newbie question or one that simply comes down to preference.
I’ve noticed that some mandolin players do more of a boom chuck chop with using 3 or 4 finger chop cords and...
Steve Hinde of Hinde Custom Instruments does
Do you have a timeline for how soon you want the mando in your hands? That might be part of the decision. A custom one could possibly take several month to years depending on the builder. Also do you...
Hi,
The lineup for the Bean Blossom Bluegrass festival looks great. Any tips for someone who has never been there? Is there good jamming? I’m in MN so I would have to either drive or fly... any...
Thank you all! This is great info! Now I’m leaning more towards Mandolin Camp North or ROW. Pros and cons to those?
Hi,
I’m considering attending Montana Fiddle Camp (but for mandolin). Has anyone gone? Any thoughts on that camp? I haven’t ever been to it. Are there any other good camps to check out? I would...
I really enjoyed this interview. I hadn’t heard of Ashley before. She is amazing and I’m looking foward to hearing more of her!
A friend of mine has a TKD that is a great instrument. I’ve only played the one, so I don’t know how consistent they are.
It sounds like you may be like me in the fact that my poor fiddle has been taking a back seat to the mandolin ever since I started playing. There really is something about it that has stolen my...
I play both fiddle and mandolin and when I get into a jam with more than one banjo I feel bad that I only know fiddle tunes and that I don’t know banjo tunes. What are some of the popular banjo tunes...
I’m going back and forth between the Bailey and Lakota too. However...the Lakota is $10 off this weekend for Black Friday/Cyber Monday, so I’m leaning towards a Lakota. I’ve never had either one. I...
It is a beautiful instrument!! I’m glad I’m not the only one that struggled. I’ve asked friends too. I feel like I just can’t quite find what I’m looking for. This is stressful! It seems like the...
The resale piece does give me some hesitation... although I hope to have this forever. I wanted something different then sunburst but I’m getting mixed reviews on this color combo
I’m considering having a mando built similar to this... maroon face, natural back and sides, tortoise binding. I’ve been told on the Cafe that it’s resale value won’t be as good with the natural...
Thank you everyone! This is a tough decision. It sounds like I should do lacquer if I want the natural back and sides. It seems like there are a lot of opinions on the topic of varnish vs lacquer....
