The real trick is not to draw attention to it like other have said. Don't...

I took am fond of the Hiscox case, but this one appears to be much thinner and in my opinion cooler looking, and with it being claimed at Fiberglass perhaps they are in different categories? The...

Is this a legit price claim AlanN? Seems a reasonable price if it is of a good quality but perhaps mostly manufactured overseas?

Since these are two completely different case styles, I am sure Pegasus won't even consider it. Unless of course, there were plans to a make a cool Loar Style inspired case with what appears to be...

Has anyone else seen one of these or know anything about them?

Thanks for all the responses, this is great speedy help! The picture is especially helpful.

While I was searching online I found a pic (see below) and figured that the fret wire would be a...

I am wanting to reduce some pick click on my F5 by making the frets level with the fingerboard at the extension (I play with pretty high action so don't need the full florida scoop).

Does anyone...

I had this "UKE CRAZY" baritone case lying around. Turns out it's a near perfect fit for my electric mandolin! I had to snap the compartment support out so that its lid would lie down like a ramp-...

This is for a pedalboard setup, sorry forgot to clarify! Wouldn't want to haul this thing on my side with a belt or anything while playing, and the pedalboard has its own power source. This mod...

Has anyone else been thinking of a way to get rid of some of the weight from their tone guard? I have been thinking about this a lot recently and I noticed something really interesting while watching...

Sorry, forgot to upload them. They are on now! :)

Here is a little mod I did to the lR Baggs Para DI. It is an affordable way to get a good sound out of your mando! I found the idea online somewhere.

Stumbled across this case on ebay, anyone...

I am very glad that this thread took root and possibly helped in the return of this mandolin to its owner! This is a good day for the mandolin world and stands as testament to the Mandolin Cafe...

The first looks legit, a tad overpriced though. I am loving the block inlays (Sam Bush envy*), nice looking back (almost too good to be true) and three piece neck.

That second one has a really...

Check out Caleb Klauder. Also check out the Caleb Klauder Country Band. There are tons of youtube videos and full sets. An AMAZING old time mandolin player. His band is pretty fine too! His use of...

Depending on how much you want to spend on it, there would be different options. A simple set up could be done by a local luthier at low cost (if you can get one that isn't busy), or if you wanted...

If you use a small digital hygrometer inside your case, then you will be able to get a better idea of where the level is. I use a planet waves one and it is really reliable...

Thanks for this! I search for Joe Walsh and Darol Anger on a regular basis but didn't find this one. Sometimes finding stuff tagged correctly is hard. It doesn't help that there is another musician...
