Irish Traditional Music. I prefer it to bluegrass, ;)
Never mistake how each new technology that may be intended for benign reasons is quickly weaponized. AI images from earlier just this year with terrible anatomy and almost Wes Anderson dreamy color...
Beautiful!

For sure, there are so many flavors of picks out there. Pick material and thickness (along with technique) along with string material and gauges are the easiest way to get a different tone out of any...
I think if you're really wanting to play Irish Traditional Music the tenor banjo may be more versatile and the finger stretching and string tensions more similar to a guitar. I love the mandolin for...
Yeah, it's odd. in garments, silk is considered moisture wicking and breathable. Seems like the opposite of a vapor barrier that would hold moisture within itself or prevent moisture from moving...
My rectangular Eastman case has a blankie. I've never seen a bag. I can't imagine how a silk bag helps further control humidity in a case. If the case has a good seal that should be sufficient. A...
Yes, but to be fair, his service was for a good while a hot item on the Cafe and folks may be trying to refind him for a new instrument. That said, we should be mindful of our internet savvy and...

Enjoy your new Paris Swing!

May his memory be a blessing. I'm very sorry for their loss.

My perspective, My custom mandolin sounds way better in more skilled hands than mine when I play it. What are the chances that if you're playing a moderately priced mandolin that it will sound like...
A good day yo rewatch the Triplets of Bellville as Django is cameoed in the opening sequence.

Thank you to the donor. That's a wonderful program to support.

The best budget mandolin comes from a shop that will do a proper set up so you don't have to spend almost the purchase price again on a quality set up.
I am a fan of inexpensive mandolins for...
Every new Mid Mo / Big Muddy mandolin I have handled has been a delight. I have some models that have tonal qualities I like better than others but, if I were to handed any of them I would be happy....
Some of this conversation makes me think of how I like to make my kids CRAZY by over enunciating lyrics when I sing rap music (like Public Enemy) where I know every word to every song on like 4...
Hope you have a great birthday, Dan!
I'm now making it a policy not to interact with posts on social medias that use AI to generate artwork. It's just too much stealing from actual artists. My company now has a AI interface to help...
Welcome to the Cafe.

I love how you can hear the tonal differences between those builds so easily. Those are great looking and sounding.
