Tone is in your hands. Has anyone said that already? I haven't gone through the volumes of comments yet.
I will say that my taste in picks have gone through some many changes since I picked up a...

Oh man! I'm embarrassed to say I've flaked returning the favor for emailing me this fantastic eBook! I've recommended it to friends and acquaintances since I received it but I just never remembered...

I second moving the Dyn-M around. Maybe have someone slowly move it around while you're playing until you find a tone you can work with?
I've been using the Dyn-M for about a year on my MD315 and...

"Borrowing from Rickenbacker 12 strings ..Tuners for a slotted peg head and a regular one can combine
to make more fit with less space."

Wow! That's a great idea- I'm going to have to look into...

I picked up a KM300e a couple months back and I really like it but it really is just a tiny guitar. At least that's how I end up approaching it after a few songs with my band.
Seems to me that if...

Thanks for your input, y'all! I pulled the trigger on a K10- should be here in a couple of weeks. I'll report back after a few gigs.

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you! The thought of buying a small mixer on top of what I already own (Redeye/EQ pedal) has been what I've been scratching my head about. Wonder if there is...

A recent thread as me considering the QSC K10 or K8 as an "amp" for my MD-315. I hate the mandolin blaring back at me from the monitors so I choose to use an amp behind me. Currently, I'm running...

I just used mine flying out to California for a couple of gigs. Fit nicely in the overhead compartment and was light enough to carry around for extended periods of time. I wouldn't throw it in a van...

That's my assumption as well. The inherent tone of the instrument.

What a great collection of examinations these videos are!

I tried going into the SWR with and without the RedEye and found the tone to be more even with the RedEye. I've had great success using the SWR as a bass amp in low volume situations. Pretty...

Thought I should update as it's been a while.
I ended up buying a RedEye and an MXR EQ pedal to scoop out offending frequencies if I needed to. After playing a few gigs in some larger and medium...

I ended up pairing a K&K internal twin with the Red Eye preamp for my Eastman 315. I also bought an MXR EQ pedal to throw in the mix if I felt the need to scoop out any offending frequencies. Come to...

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm pretty careful about amp placement and what direction the mandolin is facing. I'll try going sans the SWR at my next rehearsal. I'm not crazy about the tone, anyway. ...

I realize this topic has likely been covered ad nauseum already, but I haven't been able to find the answers I'm looking for in the Forum archives. So here I am.
I'm having a fair amount of...

It's on ebay at the moment, and the price seems fairly reasonable. Seller has been good about answering all my questions- at least to his or her ability. The pressed top has me moving on to looking...

Thanks- hadn't considered the scroll.

(Thread Title is WRONG- meant to type LM500)
Apologies if I'm posting in the wrong section. First post after lurking for a while.
I'm looking at this Loar that I believe to be an LM500 but I can't...
