Ok, thanks for the information. I rarely lock my case, but there have been times, like leaving my instrument unattended after a gig, where it would be nice to have keys.

Hey all,
I have a call in to Peter, but I may get a quick answer here. I just received my Airloom case and I can't find any keys for the latches. Did your cases come with keys?
Thanks,
Tal
I almost bought a set of those several years ago for my mandolin. They sure look great. Congratulations.

I don't think anyone has added Wyatt Rice and Rickie Simpkin's "New Acoustic Christmas." There is some great mando playing on these arrangements.

Check out Don Julin's great youtube video. His explanation of these three shapes that can be played up and down the neck--similar to what JeffD mentioned above--really opened up some possibilities...
I streamed last night's show of the Foghorn Stringband with Dirk Powell. What a great show! Dirk and Sammy really got after the fiddle tunes that they were knocking down. As always, I could listen to...
Pretty cool opportunity to stream The Foghorn Strinband coming up on September 20. Here is a link to their latest newsletter. In it you can find a link to buy a $5 ticket, which will allow you to...
The Wegen picks are great picks, but I have found that figuring out the shape of pick you like first could save you quite a bit of money down the road. Rather than spending the money on a Wegen or a...
Wow, great score! I just bought the same case about a month ago for $100 more and I still feel like it was a great deal.
Congrats!
I think this is out of print on CD. It looks like there are used albums out there for sale. I downloaded my copy at iTunes.
I forgot to mention, Tony Rice and David Grisman's Tone Poems is one of my favorite guitar/mando duet albums.
+11 on the Skaggs and Rice recommendation

I just started using RODE rec, the free version. I downloaded it to use with a Mikey mic that I recently purchased, but I'm sure you can simply use the phone's mic.
As much as I love the Bluechip picks, I find myself reaching for my Dunlop 500 1.14 lately. I lost one BC through the cracks of a porch and I lost another one in a trade gone bad. Losing $70 worth of...
Don,
I think you'll love it.

Looks like I need another coffee. The case in the classifieds is an F style.
Zookplayer,
Right after I posted my reply I noticed that there is a really nice fiberglass case in the classifieds. My friend has this case and she is really pleased with it.

When I bought my Krishot A5 four years ago it came in a shaped tweed case that did not contain the instrument well. There was a lot of movement. I bought this Guardian Deluxe Vintage Case and it...
As many have reported, carrying a mandolin is typically not a problem, but I would suggest upgrading to a more protective case. I flew three flights to get to Clifftop last week and did not have an...
I don't know that I have heard enough to declare these the best, but during the holidays I love listening to David Grisman's Christmas album, and I really enjoy the Wyatt Rice and Rickie Simpkins...
Interesting timing on this thread. I just broke 2 E strings at the tuner while changing my strings tonight. For the life of me I can't figure out what is happening, so now I am sitting here going...
Recently I have been making a more concerted effort to learn this skill of picking out a melody. I use The Amazing Slowdowner to loop a section of something that i want to learn and go to it....
Disregard ...
I followed the same steps and, for some reason, it worked this time.
Hi,
I tried to upload an image for my avatar. I received the message, "this is an invalid image". I had resized the file to 84kb and the file is a JPEG.
I tried searching the archives but didn't...
As if there were not too many choices already, lately I have settled on the Wegen "CF 140," a custom pick sold by Greg Boyd's House of Fine Instruments. The pick is the same shape as the TF 140 but...
