It only shows how to play some of his songs and not the method behind it. But that reminded me that I had bought the part on arpeggios from Monroe Mandolin series that he and Christopher Henry put...
I may have to ask him to specifically teach only that. I had some skype lessons from him earlier and said that was one of the things I wanted to learn, but didn't get that part.

I sent a request for another copy. I got a copy when he first offered it a few years ago, but when I got a different computer I lost it. After seeing this post I requested another copy of it. Very...

I don't know why it is not embedding the video, I am using the link button, but it just shows a clickable link instead of embedding it.
David McLaughlin is my favorite mandolin player. The song below is a perfect example of his style, and I would like to learn what he is doing on the notes between the melody. I assume it is...
I used to have a printout of the action and string height for the expensive Gibson Master Model mandolins and Mastertone banjos, but I have lost them somewhere. It seems like someone had talked to...
Great article in the latest Bluegrass Unlimited on Black Diamond Strings. They were bought in 2000 by the Cavanaugh family who also owns and makes Super Sensitive strings and Red Label strings. ...

If you read the latest Bluegrass Unlimited article with Michael Cleveland, he states that he started with the Suzuki Method. I think he turned into a fine fiddle player!

Thanks for checking, Kenny! I appreciate that!

In the description of the S5 on Janet Davis' site, Geoff says that "Another ad will be in BU that explains the 34 Czech mandolins and the 120 plus Stelling made S models since 1979." That was in...
I wonder what the ad in Bluegrass Unlimited had to say about all of the mandolins. Anyone have any back issues with the ad? It would probably be sometime in 2007. I sure would like to have a copy...
Very nice mandolin! I know you will love it! You asked for some more information for a timeline of Stelling mandolins. This is what I have printed from a Janet Davis webpage on July 18, 2007 when...
Not sure, but I think the "Q" is for Quilted, designating it being made from quilted maple.

I took Skype lessons with David McLaughlin. I used a Logitech full HD webcam (sorry, the model isn't listed on it and I don't remember what it is) and used a Samson usb mic. I used SuperTinTin to...
I wonder how many years he had to wait for it to be built? :grin: Sure is nice!

I use the Vicks Vaporizers also. My home is a little drafty and I use 3 of them for the whole house. I use between 10 and 15 GALLONS of water a day to keep the humidity up. I bought some...
I just got the bronze ones but haven't put them on yet. Not sure when I will put them on, but I'm kind of anxious to hear what they sound like.

I had another excellent lesson today with David and he asked me to add a comment for him here because he can't access the café at the moment. He said that he now uses light gauge strings with the...
For all you Johnson Mountain Boys fans and David McLaughlin fans, David was in the studio last week recording for an upcoming album with the band he is in currently, Springfield Exit. Along with him...
The Murphy Method recording is still available in DVD format. I just bought it and the "Picking Up The Pace" slow jam video that has him playing mandolin on it.
I also just started Skype lessons...
